I'd say it is just the usual *BSD propoganda. This was most accurately
dealt with in the user friendly strips:
	http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=19990325
and for the complete storyine:
	http://www.userfriendly.org/cgi-bin/texhtml?form=uf%2Fsearchstrip&searchobject=BSD&submit=Search
I say, be proud to be a user that chooses an operating system that matches
your needs whatever that may be.

Cheers,

Raymond
