The [H]omer award for COLA Advocate of the Week:
Nerdwizard <nerdwizard@xxxxxxxxxx>
(On what truly motivates Microsoft to enter the Third World Market)
.----
| Poor people and poor nations are grabbing their chance to become
| technologically competitive, as this is their one opportunity to
| become self reliant, in a new trading market on the Internet.
|
| Linux lowered the entry fee so they can join in. Microsoft profits
| naught, but is drooling to go there, angry at the loss of the
| opportunity to further it's "protection Racket" cartel in concert
| with the many 'Trusted Partners" who all prosper from the "114,000
| Microsoft Virus and Malware Definitions".

[1]: Posts via mail to news gateways are dropped by this server
and hence not included in the stats.
Other attention seeking posters may not appear as well.
[2]: Troll feeder %'age is (troll feeding posts / total posts) * 100
[3]: The poster 'quality' stats is based on:
a) quoting: 100 - %'age quoted
b) cross-posting: 100 - %'age cross-posted
c) number of direct followups posters articles get
d) troll feeding: 100 - 2.0 * %'age troll followups
e) 75 deducted for known trolls
f) for the humour impaired the quotes around 'quality'
are intended to convey they are not to be taken too
seriously :-)
