I'm sure Roy means well. He just needs to be more stringent in checking
what he posts is accurate, and should make sure what is his personal
opinion is clearly diferentiated from what he is presenting as facts.
All of us here have the right to express our opinions, but they shouldn't
be confused with facts (even when they are in agreement, IMO).

SOme just dislike him because he posts a lot. Well, if they don't care
for his posts, they should try killfiling him. He's advocating Linux,
which is what this group is for. Or they should challenge and refute what
he posts in the relevant threads. Some unfortunately prefer merely to
slander him without doing either.
