BlackShadowWolf Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Ballmer says that Linux infringes on Microsoft patents and needs to be sued into the ground. Yuck, i despise Ballmer. He has Microsoft s**t shoved so far up him that hes gone completely pyscho. Wait he already is just for being Ballmer . I can imagine what he'll do at the next conference. "SuSE! SuSE! SuSE! SuSE! SuSE! SuSE! SuSE! SuSE! SuSE! SuSE! " or --v "KILL LINUX! KILL LINUX! KILL LINUX! KILL LINUX! KILL LINUX!" I hope he does try and sue Linux, every open source advocate, except SuSE people I guess will fight to bring him down. He underestimates 2 things, that Linux is not part of Microsoft products as its been deemed legal for almost 20 years I think, and that the open-source community is strong. Ballmer go poof .

trav1085 Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 The only balls Ballmer has is in his name, he's an idiot. I don't think Gates would have "sued" linux, or maybe he would. But how can you sue open-source free-ware? Why would ballmer sue linux? To fulfill his inadequacies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semthex Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Hmm sounds as some more strange things will ahppen in the future. This smelsl abit like the beginning of a offensive tactics to force competitioners down to the kenees with patent rights. We will see what the future will bring to us but, I may remember Gates just promoted software patents in europe and my belive is M$ has found it to be a really good weapon to figth "bad stuff" like Linux. M$ will be more bad, SCO was just a beginning. Etiam nunc regredi possumus; quod si ponticulum transierimus, omnia armis agenda erunt. To sad to see SuSE has become a part of the whole mess now. I used it in the old 3/4.x days and it was really my first Linux. Now it's the middle finger of the left hand of evil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
