does microcraps greed know no bounds?

i for one will be uninstalling all MS products from all my computers tonight, well the one of 4 that is still running windows.

i have always been a supporter of linux, and only used Micro products to keep up with the trends, in my work place.

microcrime is a greedy corp. and does not deserve your money or support. screw them.

Not again! I for one am sick of Microsoft spreading lies about the open source community. They keep saying this but yet constantly fail to name the patents Linux violates. I personally don't think Open Source does violate patents and maybe open source software developers should sue Microsoft for slander. They are slandering the good name that open source people have made for their software and this is wrong. If they take Microsoft to court for slander Microsoft will have to prove that the patents are actually violated or lose the case.
