I bet you know better than Greg does. I mean, he's only a kernel engineer with access to the docs.

You're not seriously using Slackware as a benchmark for what's supported on Linux? I love the distro, but that's just absurd.

You don't know shit about norway, and complain about a practice that has been abandoned which in no way took away from your personal freedom. I guess you're just an ignorat twat then.

You get a sticker every year showing that the yearly road fee is paid, and that liability insurance is OK.

No, stickers are out now. It's all electronic.

Because of that Redhat lost mindshare and customers (to Canonical, in many cases).

So a move Red Hat did in 2003 made them lose customers to an unproven upstart company with no solution for the enterprise i 2005. Sounds legit.

Your argument is bullshit as well, considering it's your anectodal evidence, which is likely to be you fucking up.

Apple has more or less thrown in the towel in the server space with the retirement of the Xserve. Not that they had a huge presence anyway.

Microsoft is a brand that inspires no confidence from consumers, and the only one who actually likes them are simpleton sysadmins.

Someone will fix OS X to be a proper operating system, instead of a kludge of different build versions for different model of computers. It's so far from elegant and modular that it's a disgrace.

No, it's because your drunken ramblings make no sense at all. This is purely about Fedora, not upstream projects. Debian, Canonical etc. aren't pulling directly from Fedora.
