Lying is a deliberate act. Show me when/where I lied about Microsoft or
Linux, rather than accidentally quoted some inaccurate blog (because these
tend to beat the mainstream press).

FUD stands for "fear uncertainty and doubt". It is referred to as a tactic
whereby lies are being spread. Here, with Mono, I express my opinion, which
is based on facts I read about. Mono is, according to Novell (heise.de
confirmed this recently), something which requires 'legal coverage'.

I apologise for replying to you just in order to speak to Team (sic).
