"I do not consider Windows ready for the desktop. I found it difficult to use, buggy and lacking in security. I also found technical support lacking. While Windows captured a significant portion of the desktop market, the product is clearly not a good fit for consumers who do not understand the risks associated with logging on to the Internet. The costs of providing aftermarket products can run higher than the price paid for the hardware."

Often is the case when frequenting linux forums for assistance, is the use of derogatory terms and variations in reference to Windows the norm and sometimes, I feel, to be expected. Almost all the time, I find myself being the only one who refers to Microsoft as MS, instead of MS, in any of the many linux forums.
I have read many of Linux is Poo's posts, and it is my honest opinion that his use is for the expressed purpose of mocking those many linux fans and zealots, that have used and still use on a daily basis the above referenced language for Windows and Microsoft, instead of actual hatred for linux.
I do agree with you. I don't think that extreme zealotry (yes, it is indeed a word, lol) is to be taken seriously.

Windoze, Winblows and so on is not any better than Linsux.
But really, how many have you seen here who call themselves "Windows Is Poo" or "MacOSX Is Poo", and would you take them seriously if they were?
It doesn't matter which OS it is, such things are signs of extreme zealotry (is that a word?), and I wont take them serious.
