This proves that FSF is equivalent to some 'extremist' group.

I am a strong Free Software advocate and a fan; but that doesn't mean I am
against the proprietary stuff; and even if one is against something or
someone, death is not the time to make such absurd comments.

Steve Jobs or Bill Gates did not point a gun on each of our head and asked
us to use their products. Did they? It is their freedom to make their
products; as it is our freedom to choose an iMAc, Microsoft, or GNU/Linux.

I understand that the comment, '"I'm not glad he's dead, but I'm glad he's
gone." was not made by RMS, but he just quoted Chicago Mayor Harold
Washington. But I don't think any sensible man would write  *Steve Jobs, the
pioneer of the computer as a jail made cool, designed to sever fools from
their freedom, has died *and *But we all deserve the end of Jobs' malign
influence on people's computing. Unfortunately, that influence continues
despite his absence.*

Ok, if RMS was so much against Apple and Microsoft, why does he provide
GNU/Emacs for Windows and MacOSX?? I once asked him about this and he
replied "That gives Windows users a taste of freedom.

If the page does not explain this point, it should.
So I will take a look."

Nothing has been done in this regard too!!


So RMS is no God and I'd call Linux Linux and NOT GNU/Linux from now! Linux
Rox!!
