If he was "never as anti-open source as it was claimed", then why does he repeatedly refer to "open sores" instead of open source? (<a href="http://www.infoworld.com/articles/op/xml/99/06/21/990621opmetcalfe.html" title="infoworld.com">reference</a infoworld.com>) This man is seems to have no problem dishing out the insults, but simply cannot take well written and well founded criticism of his brutally inept opinions. I think it behooves Linux.com in the future to NOT treat the guy with kid gloves just because of his reputation. In the long term, Linus Torvalds has already far surpassed Metcalfe's influence in the industry, and has done so with more skill, humility and grace than Bob could ever dream of.
Nice historical revisionism
