When I read FUD there is always one of the biggies around: IBM, M$,
Red Hat (reported to me by a customer), and IIRC there was some of
that coming from Intel as soon as they realized AMD's 486 gnawing at
their heels.
So one could guess there is a dependency between the size of a company
and the amount of FUD they hand to you, right?
