I had some qualms about adding this one. As I’ve said, there’s perhaps hundreds of these types of lists all over the internet. If we listed each and every one on the FUD tracker, we’d be drowned in them. And frankly, a lot of them aren’t even worthy of consideration, as they simply copy and paste claims from other such lists and forums.
Manu’s site is added here merely because of notoriety. I see it quoted more and more among the Linux crowd these days. Even Linux Hater did a posting on it, and more than a few TMRepository posts were inspired by it.

What amuses me about this site, is the section “Forget about drivers” . After all that’s right: Forget about them, you won’t get any on Linux.
Yep. For a lot of his other points, I’ll be willing to assume good faith and brush them off as ignorance, but that driver section is plainly dishonest and a very weak attempt to put a positive spin on what is perhaps Linux’s most serious disadvantage (although that’s a category with a lot of contenders).
“Don’t wait years for bugs to be solved; report and track them down?”
If there were aisles round here, I’d be rolling in them.
Still, it’s very pretty and all.
Haha, I forgot about this site. I especially love the inconsistent icon designs. Some clipart, some stolen mac icons, some Google Image Search images. Slap it all together, and voila.
