582.Charles Lohr - University of Maryland, Baltimore County - lohr1_at_ umbc.edu. If you say I should be paying someone a license for something, I'll pay it, but you'll have to tell me what it's for. I stopped pirating stuff a long time ago. Gentoo, OpenOffice, Thunderbird, various assorted KDE apps. I think that hits most of those 235.

Using Slackware, Debian, Freespire, Solaris, Ubuntu on my home computers, as well as Firefox, GIMP, mplayer, pidgin (formerly gaim), OpenOffice.org, fluxbox, and wine (so that I can play my Windows games without the Windows). I also wiped Windows XP from a customer's computer and installed Ubuntu 6.06 on it to fix their (many) problems, and he was very happy with it. I made $100 USD off the whole service. Because of my great experiences with linux, I'll never buy Microsoft software again!

All Linux servers, File servers, print servers, firewalls/routers and web servers are all free! The most irritating issue has got to be having to restart the Windows server every month for security patches. I will surely be termed "Lazy Employee" if the systems using Linux runs perfectly and my hands are free... Please sue me~
599.Clifton Hyatt, Missouri USA. Missouri's state motto is "The Show Me State", and thats what Microsoft should do, "Show Me!". I have used GNU/Linux for years (currently Kubuntu 7.04, I used to administer Windows networks and now all I do is switch individuals and organizations. I refuse to support Windows now, it's like banging your head against a brick wall. Microsoft should start suing everyone, it will shorten their death throws, 'cause GNU/Linux is going to clear their clock.

I'm with You, shoulder to shoulder.
601.Dennis Schafroth, Copenhagen, Denmark. Have been using linux since slackware pre-1.0 and is now using Ubuntu for Desktop (along with OS X), and fedora Core on servers. Been ever so happy since I have dropped my last Windows partition, even at work. RIP, Windows... and please sue me first!

606.CompUnite.co.za, Johannesburg, South Africa. Please sue us if you dare! We run our organisation entirely on Linux and OpenSource software. In fact the sole purpose of CompUnite South Africa is to help Microsoft victims to cross over to OpenSource software. I'll be forwarding this link to all our happy, satisfied and productive customers as they too would be interested in being sued. Furthermore your idol threats may be damaging to our cause and we are considering taking singlular or combined legal action to counter this mafia behaviour.

609.Dario Zanzico from Roma, Italy. I use linux everywhere, and I hope to see free software everywhere. Microsoft can't go on with all this FUD, we must do whatever we can for having it to do only is (in my opinion, bad) work. I don't trust them and as long as I can't see the code i can't trust them.
610.Kirislav Zakov. Bulgaria. I use Linux, NetBSD, OpenSolaris in my desktop at home. I use so many "bad" open source applications. GNOME, Galeon, Thunderbird ... so many. There is a sentence in my country, "the dog is barking but the caravan is going". Linux is the caravan now. So, you can not change anything.... dear M$.
611. Michael Szyndel. Poland. I've used plenty of distros in the past. At the moment I have installed Ubuntu 7 on my server, open Solaris on laptop and also OpenOffice under WINDOWS (oh my God!). I can't wait to meet you in a court!
612. Jan Niemiec. Wroclaw, Poland. Ubuntu 7.04. Look better, tastes better, uses less resources (money, time, laptop battery). Why bother with other?
613.Alan Lord, United Kingdom. GO ON M$oft! I haven't got any money but it would be fun watching you try to get some of mine! I have been using Linux for years: I roll my own distros based on Linux From Scratch and use Ubuntu 7.04 on the desktop. [http://www.theopensourcerer.com The Open Sourcerer]

616.Edgar Costanzo from Catania (Italy)
I have Linux in my heart and my PCs since 2000. I've been using Suse Linux 10.2 in the last 5 months. Before that, Kubuntu and Mandrake/Mandriva were my "preferred" distros. Actually I like to change every now and then, so I'll probably switch to some other distro before the end of the year (could I do something like this with Micro$oft product$?).
What I do with Linux? EVERYTHING!!! Developing (NetBeans, KDevelop, PHP), gaming, emailing, writing documents (openOffice), chatting (Kopete), surfing internet, 3D designing (Blender), Image editing (Gimp), listening music (Amarok ...WOW!!!), p2p file sharing (Ktorrent ... :) ), burning CDs and DVDs, etc etc etc etc etc etc ...
Let us live, Bill! Let us choose what is better for ourselves!... Or sue all of us!
617. Alex Brick, Melbourne, Australia. Ubuntu, Debian adjusted by computerbank victoria on office network. I got sick and tired of the lovely message, "your copy of windows / office is not legal, please give us even more money so we can afford to send you this message in another 6 months" so am quite happy to say fuck you microsoft again.
618.Antonio Lorusso, Altamura, Italy. I'm a linux user and I'm spreading the word around my world.. Hit Me Microsoft before it's too late :D

622.Juha K. Siltala, Helsinki, Finland. Not only do I use several GNU/Linux systems, I even use the Internet which uses Free Software extensively.
623.Rossano Gobbi, Tegna, Switzerland. I Use Ubuntu Feisty on both my laptop and my home pc. I started to use linux because I felt cooler than my friends.

626.Marco BOnfatti, Formigine (MO), Italy. Linux user, Linux IT manager and OpenSource developer.
627. Wang Yibin, Beijing, china. I us Linux on my laptops/destops for the past three years. Windows is a 'no no' to me.
628.Kamil "shela" Szelezin, Szczecin, Poland. Why I use Open Source software? Simple. It's free often more reliable than commercial, I can easy make some changes, I can rely on people who develops it and I know they at least try to solve my problem if it exist. Now i'm going to move to Linux (or Linux + FreeBSD + maybe Solaris). Why? Because Windows is annoying, slow, annoying and I don't need it at all. Did I mentioned Windows is annoying? So Sue Me First Microsoft! Save me this bullshit about your "The greatest OS Ever". Linux looks nice, uses less resources, works stable and i don't have tons of useless windows poping up with some warnings/errors. So: "Do widzenia, kup se trbke do pierdzenia" (hire someone from polish microsoft to translate it mr. Brad Smith)
629.Oscar Pingarron, España. I'm Debian and Xubuntu user. I was a fanatic user for many years of Suse, but, I don't need any protection against Microsoft, and I don't need any compatibility with Windows OS; If I may need it, I only have to buy a Windows license.

So i deserve to be punished. I use and spread Linux and the opensource programs in my family, comunity and if you don't stop me, around the world.

643. Terry (Terence John) Coles, UK. I too use Ubuntu, Firefox, OpenOffice.org. So sue me. In fact, if I need an application, and there is an open source app that will do what I want I'll use it.

647.Gergely Csonka, Hungary. Using Ubuntu since 5.04. Not because it's free, but because it's superior. Actually, it's quite easy for me to convert other people to Linux, every time someone complains about his computer, I just show him my laptop with Linux, and his first question is "Where can I get it?". Then I suggest (even help, if needed) to set up dual boot for a smoother change, but soon he realizes that he doesn't really boot into windows any more, and start thinking of the windows partition as a waste of disk space... Come on, sue me Microsoft, I'm so evil that I'm using Linux, Firefox and Amarok even right now as I'm writing this!
648. Mark Lennox, Dublin, Ireland - Ubuntu 6.10, 7.04, OpenOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird etc. While I am a .NET developer all my Microsoft installations are virtual machines - my laptop never crashes or gets infected now as it runs Debian. My Linux server is safe and secure (but still accessible) behind a router running Linux. If FOSS has stolen so much from you then why doesn't it crash and exhibit bit-rot like Microsoft's OSes? hmm? Put up or shut up - show the world what these patents are and watch the FOSS world reroute around them leaving you with your pants down AGAIN!

663. John Kemp. Recently converted to Linux after having to use it for something and realising what a breath of fresh air it was. Ubuntu Feisty is my distro of choice along with all the usual software, plus when I do use Windoze I have switched away from a lot of paid software and now use OpenOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird and GIMP for example. Just for fun I also have several games that have been released to the public domain. They're classics and they're now free and (in a way) open source, so why not? :-) My computers see a lot of general use (browsing, email, games, etc) as well as work related things (software development, etc). Most of the people I know are also either using Linux or thinking of using Linux. Bring it on Microsoft. You can't stop the signal. 664. Mazza Gianluca, Brescia/Italy GNU/Linux user (4 years). I don't want to go back.
665. Brian Auger, Howard County, Maryland, USA. I use Kubuntu 7.04. All 270 of our public access PCs use Groovix, an adaptation of Ubuntu. This fall, all our staff PCs will be running Ubuntu.

Microsoft, não tenho nada contra vocês, porque vocês não têm NADA! Afinal quem tem um RWindows fica só com os vírus!!! O FUD não vai funcionar, cada vez mais pessoas são informadas e o conhecimento as liberta do julgo da escravidão. Sou usuário Linux, sim Senhor! Nem mesmo seu governo usa seu sistema falido. Querem provar que estamos quebrando patentes, ABRAM SEU CÓDIGO(Talk is cheap! Show me the code!) e mostraremos que vocês deliberadamente utilizam-se de nosso código para implementações melhores de seus softwares sem futuro! Usuários de RWindows, a mensagem que lhes deixo é: EXPERIMENTA! Experimenta Linux e você nunca mais voltará a passar vergonha! VIVA A LIBERDADE! VIDA LONGA AO LINUX! OBRIGADO LINUS TORVALDS!

681.Rajbir Bhattacharjee (India). I've used Redhat Linux, Fedora Core, Ubuntu, Mandrake, Suse for years in addition to SCO unix, AIX, Solaris. Microsoft is modern day SCO it seems. Open office serves me great... And so do gimp, pidgin.... I've watched a lot of movies using Xine. I really loved Kill Bill 1, Kill Bill 2, Kill Bill 3. I've also read a pdf using gpdf and also on wikipedia using firefox and mozilla that the first M$ operating system, MS-Dos was based on Seattle Computer's QDOS (Quick and Dirty operating systems). Microsoft's pedagogy, family tree, and history are all so dirty. Its so dirty that sometimes I feel like opening the microsoft logo in gimp and cleaning up the dirt by using the erase tool. I've also read on the internet a joke about how microsoft was named. We have all heard about it, so I'll skip mentioning it here (Oh no Bill, I don't want you sueing me on personal grounds. Sue me if you want for using OSS, but please please please don't sue me for slandering your personal life.. please please... HEE HEE HEE HEE....You seriously didn't think I'm serious, did you?

688.Ryan Hoffman, Portland, Oregon, USA. I use Debian Linux on my home PC and a modified version of Debian on my Nokia N800. I love Debian for many reasons but some of the most important ones are Debian's social contract and APT. If Micro$oft wants a piece, they can try and take it.
689.Tomás A. Rossi, Buenos Aires, Argentina - Kubuntu Feisty (7.04) (Firefox, OpenOffice, Thunderbird ...).

692.Aaron M. Feldman, Esq. (United States) I have used Debian and Fedora, Firefox, OpenOffice, Gnome, KDE and other Free Software. I was chased away from Microsoft when my job was made impossible by twice weekly security updates, unstable registry problems with no solutions, and Windows Update mandatory upgrades that broke the ability of the server to receive updates. Plus-- they murdered GeoWorks Ensemble by penalizing those who wrote for the environment. Plus, the Gates Foundation gives money to University projects that have "professors" who then go out and write FUD. AND, the Gates Foundation is not supporting the One Laptop per Child project. Sounds like the Gates Foundation is not really not for profit to me. Oh yeah, Alberto Gonzales, we should call him to prosecute this. Mr. Gates, Please sue me for using Free Software, it would give me no end of pleasure to respond.

Dear Microsoft, I must admit that I am "also" a Windows Vista Home Premium user. You have always taken whatever you wanted to take from us; but we all know that if we want innovation things must go this way: ideas come one from another. You don't need too much to show us what you're able to do: just grab some of Linux's intellectual philosophy. You will grow up and Windows users will love you, in the same way they love Linux. Nowadays you are too far from this goal. Best Wishes and...If you are in a trouble LEARN FROM LINUX! Don't worry: HE won't regret. Bye!

Other than that, every other computer in my house (with the exception of one Mac Mini) runs Kubuntu Linux. Even on the Windows and Mac Mini, the majority of the software I use is open source. Face it, M$, I don't need your virus and spyware magnets running in my house and I get along just fine. I have yet to find any M$ (or otherwise Windows specific) program that does anything that I can't do with an equivalent open source program. Oh, wait...You're gonna ask me about games...Screw games, I have no use for them. But if I did, I'd just get a PS3 or a Wii. I see no reason to waste a desktop or laptop computer on games. So, please, come sue me ASAP!
720. David Mulder, Baarn, Netherlands. I was ANTI-microsoft, now I am only pro-OpenSource. Still need to use Windows sometimes because of compatibility reasons ;( CRY CRY CRY. Well the point is that I hate organizations using this type of "marketing" tricks.

Many years ago, I used an Intel 310 Multibus system that ran on Xenix. I thought (mistakenly?) that my use was legal. Perhaps Intel really did not own its own Xenix (predated SCO). Tandy also provided Xenix on its early TRS machines which I also owned and operated. Maybe after all these years, I owe Microsoft a duty. Since I really can't determine how much without a court order, I probably will have to be sued. Go ahead Microsoft--let's get this behind us.

P13@$3 |\/|1cr0$0f7, su3 m3!!! -- not interested in posting my e-mail, but if a request is left on the page for my info I'll be happy to forward it.
