Yankee Group Slams Linux 'Extremists'

AvatarofVirgo wrote in to mention an article running on ZDNet in which the consulting firm The Yankee Group goes after folks in the Linux community who have been questioning their objectivity. From the article: "Laura DiDio, an analyst at the Yankee Group who has been at the receiving end of much of the criticism from Linux advocates, claimed the radical elements of the community could damage the reputation of open source software."

    That's hysterical. Yankee is the 'techie' Gartner and both of them are so far up Bill Gates' ass, professionally and financially they're painting the employees like the Little Purple Pill for acid reflux.

    Gimme a break. This asshole has been spinning anti-Linux, pro-Microsoft BULLSHIT for several years now.

    She's a PAID SHILL - nothing more. Do I mean she directly gets a check from Bill? Maybe not - but she knows which side her bread is buttered on and she "reports" accordingly.

    This latest is nothing more than another attempt to run down Linux by running down its supporters - another tack that other MS shill asshole Rob Enderle probably taught her.

    So who cares what she says?

    She's no different than any Windows troll on /.

    Read my HTTP, Laura.

    Fuck you.
