    This is the kind of post where people should either shut up or say "wow, now that's something." This is not the time for *stupid* comments like the poster wrote, "see if the linux folks can match that" or for the kinds of responses where some slashdotters do all sorts of analysis on how an open-source OS helps sick kids. I can't even believe what I'm reading here.
