Everyone, please take care how you refer to users of any operating system.
We have a list policy against OS trolls. See the "No Evangelism" section in
our list etiquette.

http://linuxmovies.sourceforge.net/mailing.list.html

It is fine to discuss the merits of OS X vs. Linux. It is not ok for anyone
to try to catagorize people or call them names based on their OS. I have
reminded the poster of the inappropriate remark that we have a list policy
against such things.

Each of us has said the wrong thing sometime, and I ask that we all consider
that when someone makes a mistake. Please don't compound an infraction of
our list policy by debating an inappropriate remark on the list. The person
to complain to in such cases is me. I warn or remove people who post uncivil
remarks.

Thanks!
