[comp.os.minix] Why are you flaming Gnu and Minix?

joe@dayton.UUCP (01/24/87)

There has been a lot of discussion concerning legality, return policies,
etc, etc, etc.

My impression of what Dr. Tanenbaum is trying to do does not include
being all that concerned about legality.  Why not let Dr. Tanenbaum
and Prentice-Hall worry about it, if they want to?  It's really none of
your business and comes across VERY badly.  If I were in Dr. Tanenbaum's
position, I would just quite bothering with this newsgroup -- most of the
stuff in here is drivel.  The same can be said about GNU discussions.

I wish people would stop griping and bitching because someone else isn't
providing them with enough software, isn't putting a large enough
guarantee on it, or whatever.  If you don't like a product, no one is
telling you that you have to use it.  Go write your own version if you
think everyone else's isn't any good.

So stow it!
