Let's refine this to maybe not be so MS centric. We don't need MS to make
good code, and we don't need them to spread truth about Linux/OS/GNU.
Let's focus on anyone in the IT field who wants to know what Linux is
about, capable of, and should be used for. I don't think our point should
be to fight MS here, but to just be a force to counter the negative
information that other companies circulate. As it stands right now, they
have the cash to say what they want about Linux and no one will stop them.

Sorry bout that.
