Let get this straight, you no more know the identity of anyone here than
I do. As has already been shown pro-MS opinion has been exposed as
sometimes being as a result of gifting to which Ive examples on my site
. Pro MS opinion can have many different motives.
Now apparently, I'm some sort of easily led crack pot, yet you didn't
make a comment regarding the imposter posing as a legitimate company
pimping Microsoft stock on Twitter. Why? (and if I missed that in your
response I'm sorry, but it appears you've snipped that bit out)
Quote " you're all victims of the evil Microsoft Corporation."
Don't be so silly. Microsoft is not a living entity and ergo cannot
itself be evil (merely the people who run it). I'm not a victim of
anything, my evidentially documented articles exposing underhanded
practice only serve to show the lengths some will go. Was it Microsoft
who impersonated Optionetics? Dont know and who cares? It was someone
promoting MS stock under false pretences and needed to be challenged
regardless.
Whoever you are, I still haven't seen you provide any convincing
argument about why Linux shouldn't be considered by users. This is
linux.advocacy is it not? So I'm wondering why you seem so outraged
that people would advocate it and why do you spend your time merely
making personal remarks to people you've never met?
You seem to be confusing MS faithful with MS employee. MS faithful can
be anyone (paid, employed or not) it is someone who either seeks to
distort a message about alternatives or someone who posts
Fud/vulgarity/lies. The motive behind it is irrelevant to me, it needs
to be challenged.
Before you accuse me of being on some Anti-MS campaign, please first
read my blog, you will see I have:
1. Championed the XP platform over Vista/7 (and not tried to force Linux
onto anyone)
2. Challenged a Linux advocate on what I considered was a misleading post.
3. Refused to agree with the EU in respect of MS anti-trust, as I
believe it would be harmful to the IT world as a whole.
4. Condemned the piracy of Microsoft products.
5. More recently, not published an article as a result of a Microsoft
comment which (IMO) could have looked bad for them. - Please, if you
want to call me a liar in respect of this, challenge me, I will be happy
to print it (although I did tell the poster(s) their correction was enough)
Think on this, peoples opinion comes from many sources if everyone was a
clone of Roy there would be no diversity in the posts here. Just as
people saw on Eweeks Microsoft Watch, the alternative view to MS
products is stronger, more passionate and IMO based on honest held belief.
