A couple of days ago I was surfing on the net and went on a Star Trek site. I
liked what they had and out of good faith I sent them the message << lets port
it to Linux>>
I thought that the Linux community had an attitude but I was wrong.
This is the answer that I received.
Now what would you answer to them??/
I really do not like people that are that sarcastic especially to someone that
they do not know.
I would appreciate any ideas!!!
