I was just pointing out the difference in attitude between the free s/w
philosophers and myself. I was not trying to defame RMS. Using 100% free s/w
is very good. But it may not workout well for newbies. That's all. I
mentioned RMS because I recently read a mail from him talking against latest
Linux kernels which contains non-free firmware. Sorry if talking against RMS
hurts anybody.

I also do not support spoon feeding as Joju Joshua did. But I like to help
them understand what the real problem is. Then they can search for
solutions.
