This is going to be very ironic coming from a non-subscribed poster.

Judging from the comments here should lwn perhaps rethink allowing guests to post? Restricting commenting to subscribers could probably cause Microsoft marketing department to fund the whole of lwn through subscriptions for their bogus posters. And the comment quality would skyrocket.

If there's something ms has no lack of, it's money to buy an lwn membership.

(Wildly offtopic, but I'm on vacation and slightly bored.)

I would rather have MS spend money on LWN subscriptions than, say, on patent royalties to Novell or back-handed funding of SCO.

Not that there is any logical link between the two, but this whole thread is pointless anyway.
