  1. A little too antagonistic... by Apocros · · Score: 2

    i think it would have been better to have the flyers read 'support linux', rather than 'oppose microsoft'. one should not be touting linux simply because it's not microsoft, which is the impression people could get from their singling out microsoft like that. if you want to support linux, great, but do it based on its own merits and not who did or did not create it.

    yes, i realize the purpose was to create a little controversy, but i think i more subtle approach would have been more effective.
