Dude. It's not news that CmdrTaco and gang can greatly influence
almost any reaction from the Slashdot *mob*. I don't actually have
anything against Slashdot (really, I quite like it -- it's almost
self-regulating in several ways) but clearly they do share some of the
responsibility/credit for the extent of the reaction. Besides which,
Corel did do something monumentally stupid which indeed speaks very
badly for Corel as a whole.
This is the way it is and has been for a long time. Unfortunately,
you and Corel will have to deal with it as others have already.
Cheers,
Navin
