<div class="gmail_quote"><div>Besides the unspecified bugs and crashes, I think what's overstated in that blog post is the brave comparison and generalization between OS and proprietary software. Imho it's fairly non-sense, even more 'cause not backed up by specifications or even simple ideas.</div>
