"Linux = Best of Breed UNIX. Linux outperforms many other UNIX's in most
major performance category (networking, disk I/O, process ctx switch, etc.).
To grow their featurebase, Linux has also liberally stolen features of other
UNIX's (shell features, file systems, graphics, CPU ports)"

This quote, taken from

http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/halloween.html

is most disturbing, mostly because it's not true. It has made me decide to
remove all Microsoft product from this particular computer as soon as
possible. It is unfortunate that Microsoft has decided to follow this kind
of path.
