They apparently did the same thing for Netware. Notice that they only made
970Mb of RAM available for Linux, compared to the 4Gb for NT? And the fact
that in the Samba comfiguration, they set widelinks to "no"? And that,
like the Netware-bashing before it, this Linux-bashing was sponsored by
everyone's favourite software company?
