In reply to Rob Enderle
|
I normally don't respond to opinion pieces, since I feel that everyone is entitled to their opinion. However, when I read the above story, my jaw dropped. Sir, how in Heaven's name can you equate any group of computer enthusiasts, no matter how rude or abrasive they may be to you personally, with a movement that wantonly kills people for no reason other than to advance their political agenda?? I consider this a vicious slap in the face to those who lost loved ones in the September 11, 2001 attack.
By the way, I too am a computer enthusiast. My ire with you, however, has nothing to do with which operating system I happen to be using at the time (and, for the record, I use several, including Linux, various versions of Windows, OS/400, and even some Unix variants in my daily endeavours). I leave it to you to judge for yourself whether the outrage I feel at your comments brands me as a "Pro", a "Priest", or a "Zealot", and for which particular piece of software (as if that were relevant).
Also for the record, I am not "hiding" behind a fake name in sending this message.
