Next Pegasos production sold out : Comment 137 of 280 | ANN.lu |

> spread FUD and I'll happily argue with you about it.
Whenever have Ben *not* been spreading FUD?
But let's just give you something to work with.
Case 1) MOS-Team are a bunch of thieves.
For how many years now have Ben been telling us how the MOS-team have been using stolen source-code? But in all that time never once have I, you, a judge or anyone else seen any hint of evidence to back up that claim.
You don't think that's FUD?
Case 2) The killing of the x86-initiative.
Using flawed argument like stupid business-decisions at Be and his own failure of selling his vintage-games to people, who stopped playing the same game years ago (the Linux-crowd) he "proves" that x86 is the death of any OS. Totally ignoring that there are many OS' doing just nice on the x86. FUD FUD FUD.
Case 2b) The killing of the x86-initiative - the personal attack.
Anyone using x86 are incapable of booting anything but Windows. Ben have conjured up this silly notion that somehow the x86 sends out some strange voodoo-vibes that will lure anyone to boot Windows.
Clear case of FUD... but if you're still believing in Bens gospell, well, just ask any Amithlon-user how often he boots Windows.
Case 3) The licensing-scheme - "If onlye we could force everyone to buy a copy".
Do you believe that Ben will be the first in the world addressing piracy with success? No? Nor do I and nor do Ben. This licensingscheme has no intention of avoiding piracy, but just making sure everyone buys a copy, whether they want to or not.
The piracyspeeches... just plain FUD... or more corectly: a smokescreen.
Do you want more? |
