As some regulars would insist, I think we must ignore all the shills here and
not even post indirect replies that quote their drivel. It is outrageous
that they invade 'our side'. It's totally out of place, but I don't think it
mischaracterises the company which puts anti-Linux ads in Linux Web sites,
search results for 'linux, attends (even hijacks) Linux conferences, etc.
