Linus: "Microsoft Hatred Is a Disease"
For the most part, I agree with Linus. MS shouldn't be excluded, or hated solely because it's MS.But, that doesn't mean they should be welcomed with open arms, either. MS has done some nasty stuff to us (OOXML, FUD campaigns, patent threats, et cetera). I recognize that companies are large and fluid, but they should still be held accountable.MS has recently decreased their evil_count in my books, but they still have a long way to go...With companies I trust, I  ``trust, but verify''. With MS, I ``distrust until verified.''
