Theo's mentioned trying to be nice in the past, and it never seemed to work.

Theo has the patience of a small child.

I've tried being nice with Intel and it has worked.

http://www3.intel.com/cd/software/opensource/asmo-na/eng/243377.htm

lists many of the successes related to Intel and open source.

Is it everything we want? No, not by a long shot. Is it better than what we're likely to get as a result of Theo throwing public temper tantrums? Yes, by a long shot.
