There are those of us who use other distro's are quite happy doing so, 
and don't need to make a big deal out of it.

Not because ours is better or their's worse, but because "it just 
works(tm)".

I too think that what Karl did was out of line, and he deserves to have 
the privledge removed.

I have physical access to the corporate servers at work. They run 
Windows. If I came in one weekend, and replaced them with Linux, I'd 
expect to get fired on Monday. Even if I replaced them with something 
"better", "more stable" and with "less TCO", I'd be out of line and in 
the unemployment line/sig.

Karl has abused a trust.
