The dollar, falling like a stone! may it hit you on the head before it crashes through the basement of Hell! You left out the greatest man computing has even known! Single-handedly crippled $Microsoft! How about the guy who gave us Ubuntu? Another giant nerd in our times? You bypass the real heroes and laud the corporate puppet, shyster backed, son of a bitch that held American students hostage from the programming world with his "Pablum Programs" While Asians, Europeans, Russians kicked ass in this sphere! So sad, xenophobic, hegimoniously, entitled, Yankee Doodle - blinkered from his own follies by astounding single-minded blindness to the facts! So Sad, So sad.
