> Leaving these the way you have them makes the Linux community continue to
> look like we're obsessed with hating Microsoft.  Present it in a positive
> tone (promoting Linux) instead of a negative one (bashing Microsoft).  This
> is mostly because those who already dislike MS have switched over, so now
> you have to convince those who don't feel quite so offended by MS.  They
> may not be so receptive to the negative presentation.
> 
> >   In addition we will be there, outside socializing, relaxing and trying

> Very good.
