+<P>We don't like nvidia's binary drives, their quality, unstability,
+non-existant user support, always appearing new bugs. And most users behave
+the same. We've been contacted by NVidia lately, and they said these bugs
+don't exist, unstability is caused by bad AGP chips, and they received
+no reports of driver bugs (the purple line, for example). So: if you have
+problem with your NVidia, update the nvidia driver and/or buy a new
+motherboard.</P>

+<P>He doesn't reply to our mails. His editor doesn't reply to our mails.
+The net is full with his false statements and accusitions (he apparently
+doesn't like for example the BSD guys, because of their different viewpoints
+[about what?]).</P>
+
+<P>Now some quotes from different people about Joe Barr (just for you
+understand why doesn't he matter at all):</P>
+
+<P><I>"You may all remember the LinuxWorld 2000, when he claimed that Linus T said
+that 'FreeBSD is just a handful of programmers'. Linus said NOTHING of the
+sort. When Joe was called on this, his reaction was to call BSD supporters
+assholes and jerks."</I></P>
+
+<P><I>"He's interesting, but not good at avoiding, um... controversy. Joe Barr
+used to be one of the regulars on Will Zachmann's Canopus forum on Compuserve,
+years ago. He was an OS/2 advocate then (I was an OS/2 fan too).
+He used to go over-the-top, flaming people, and I suspect he had some hard
+times, then. He's mellowed some, judging by his columns recently. Moderately
+subtle humor was not his mode in those earlier days, not at all."</I></P>
