It's plausible that Schestowitz is a paid
Microsoft troll because they have done that in the
past and it wouldn't surprise me if they are up to
the same old tricks again.
Schestowitz certainly seems to irritate people and
with his flood of messages polluting the Linux
groups and antagonizing the Windows users the
net effect is to turn people off to Linux.
It doesn't make sense for a person to spend as
much time as he does sending out messages unless
that person was being paid for his time.
The question remains, who is paying Roy
Schestowitz?
Microsoft?
Maybe.
