Well, fortunately, the aggressive egg-peddler didn't claim to represent
either free software or open source.  In fact, the wording about
"Microsoft corruption" and returning funds stolen from the Hungarian
people seem to suggest an unhappy customer, nay?

One of the things I learned -- and (as required) pointed out to reporters -- 
while running the first Windows Refund Day:  We're not the blokes who
are upset with Microsoft Corporation.  Their own _customers_ are.
