That's the same as buying Sun boxes and getting Solaris for free, 
almost... since you have to pay someone somewhere to write the code, in 
the long-term, right?  :-)

Linux zealouts promise that Linux can do things "better" even though 
it's all-volunteer.  I think the proof is in the pudding that it simply 
CAN'T.

I don't have the kind of money it would take to "fix" Linux. 
Shuttleworth does, and his results have been good, but not "astounding" 
after millions of dollars poured into Ubuntu.
