Yeah, not at all a "popular" comment to make but get over it already.
"a handy little GPL-licensed utility" <- there is a valid basis for including it even though other sites may have been more applicable. Besides, if it's GPL then there is source. Unless the source relies on .NET or some other abomination, you can compile it for use on any other platform 90% of the time.
I'm on a Linux based OS unless forced to use Windows by work or gaming; the latter, I get very little time to do these days. For when I am on a Windows box, I've kept this handy program on my USB frequently find need for it.
The zealot commentors seems to be magifying in obnoxiousness the last few weeks. I'll still be here daily for *all* the great articles that are posted but I think I liked it better when they'd first changed the comment engine most people choose not to use it.
Keep up the great work Tina. The companies using FOSS case studies are a favourite of mine.
(I can't remember when the last time I saw a BSD article hit these listings but I'm sure it didn't get the same response what with not having the eveel Windows in it's brand name.)
