FUD in the wild!

So I was reading this article from a link on Slashdot. The article is about getting a refund from your computer manufacturer for the cost of Windows. I read the article (pretty good, by the way) and was skimming the comments when I found this gem.

What an idiot, he wastes several hours of his life on getting $300 because he likes Linux. I go to Slashdot and other places to hear "the other side of logic" and sometimes I just shake my head. You guys are supporting OS/2 essentially. Until all distros unite with one common vision there's no future for Linux because of brand dilution and customer confusion. Also, wait until SCO is done collecting royalties for the SMP code that was manhandled to get Linux legit in the Enterprise. Not only does it not work at the desktop for anything, but then it'll lose it's footing in the Enterprise. Nice.
And you think FUD is just an urban legend.
