'Apology' accepted, and sorry for getting offended, but I'm sure you can
understand - I voiced a concern, and essentially was lumped in with the
slashdot "Micro$loth sux0rz" crowd.

Anyway, I think the general lesson to be learned here (for everyone I
mean) is to tread carefully and mind /everyone's/ opinions and
concerns.  Not all of us are simply mindbent on linux world domination
(and some of us are).  Some people take this whole freedom thing very
seriously, and get mighty defensive when it's threatened.  That is the
whole point of our little operating system here, after all..

I don't really intend on dragging this out any farther than it's already
gone. :)
