Uh. I fully believe the Theory of Evolution to be correct, at least in its generalities (most theories can be improved), but that doesn't mean it's not a theory. It is no more a fact than Newtonian theories of motion (which turned out to be wrong!) What's wrong with them representing it as the theory it is?

Submission + - Mandriva: An open letter to Steve Ballmer

Submitted by Anonymous Coward on Wednesday October 31, 2007 @11:21PM

An anonymous reader writes: An entry on the Mandriva Blog, written by Mandriva CEO François Bancilhon, is suggesting that the Nigerian government, after ordering thousands of Classmate PCs with Mandriva Linux installed, has suddenly decided that they will instead install Windows replacing the pre-loaded Mandriva Linux installation on the low-cost computing devices intended for children in the developing world. The blog suggests that this was not a decision that the Nigerian government made on its own. Is this just speculation, or is there something much bigger going on here?
