Which just proves what I've been thinking all along: His remarks were
NOT smart. Why? Because he didn't think about the effect they'd have.
As you say yourself, most people are reading "Linux bad, Windows good"
into the statement - and he should have known that. There's nothing
wrong with pointing out that Linux has its shortcomings and that
people should not expect too much. There's everything wrong with
pointing them to a competing monopoly instead in the same sentence.
Cheerio,
