Why the hostility? Because Linspire turned into a Linux foe shortly after it had received payments from Microsoft.

It was NOT Linspire's "Chairman" who resigned, but their CEO. Linspire's Chairman has always been Michael Robertson, and he is still Linspire's Chairman. It was their CEO, Kevin Carmony, who resigned and moved on to other non-Linux related ventures. Michael Robertson has several ventures, and has for years, not just Linspire. It's not unusual for a Chairman to be involved in multiple companies.

John,
Yes, I know this and I thought the text made it clear. Carmony and others appear to have left, but it also looks like the chairman puts his eyes on other projects (unless it's a case of handling many projects, as always).
Mendonça no longer functions as an independent agent but rather as a fig-leaf for a mafia-like entity that prizes obedience over integrity and self-preservation over truth
The state of the media is not good and when prolific book publishers start running ads as 'articles' or videos (never mind the disclosure) it is rather tasteless
Microsoft's CEO has already admitted that XBox is having serious financial problems [...] They already try to reuse the brand "XBox" to refer to Vista 11
This is what happens when companies try to establish themselves on a mountain of promises and false assumptions, kicking the can down the road until payroll becomes hard to complete
