While I find the obsession COLA has with me and my views (and even more than
that, my life), I have to say your expression of your obsession is for a
change actually a rare case of it being a (mostly) good thing.

It is absolutely correct of you to say I do not see desktop Linux as a
failure. Sure, it does not compete with OS X and Windows for the general
market, but it is world-changing for those who cannot afford such systems /
licenses and is often the best choice for people who work largely with the
command line.

So often the obsession with me that so many in COLA has leads them to post
absurd and silly attacks, and to twist words and to otherwise troll. We have
seen a LOT of that toward me in the last few days. But you are rising above
that... even if holding on to the weird COLA obsession with me.
