This thread isn't about assistance. It's not even about rational
discourse anymore.
I'm sorry, I assumed you were being deliberately provocative. I
couldn't think of any other rationale for your remarks. Were you
seriously suggesting that because I happen to have hardware that needs
drivers that are only available in proprietary form, or that I happen to
need Maple or Matlab or other commercial software with no OSS
equivalent, or that my employer uses Exchange, that I have no business
using Linux?
