[Gllug] Onetel are CRAP!!

[Dermot Moynihan]

Thanks Daniel.
Gotta admit that It's come as a bit of a surprise to find somebody at a 
forum dedicated to Linux defending, indeed  extolling the merits of, a 
multinational. I had thought there was a bit of a philosophy behind Linux. 
And that, consequently, Linux enthusiasts subscribed to that philosophy. 
That's one of the things that attracted me.
All the best
Dermot.
