That's the first thing that popped into my head when I saw the name. The Vista
King Dudds nymshift was part of The Slog around the launch of Vista,
predicting doom & gloom for Linux. How funny it is that Vista almost
killed /Microsoft/, which has pretty much abandoned it for vapourware now
(remember "Longhorn... to be ready in 2003"?).

That's because lying cola Linux bozos - like you and Terry Porter - who make
ridiculous claims bring out the worst in me.
* employees using browsers during the workday is due to a flaw in Microsoft
products
* the gaming industry was "tilting" toward Linux years ago
* Windows is bad for education
You're just silly people. If you made similarly stupid statements at work
you would lose whatever reputation you have.
