I don't, but you can't just ignore the Dark Side. It has very strange  
ways, like having Leslie Lamport on it's payroll, consulting Donald  
Knuth about math typography, and, on the other hand, trying to take  
over specifications they didn't develop and disseminating FUD among  
Linux users for supposed patent infringements without revealing which  
ones.
