that's okay, no need to be sorry.
you are entitled to your opinion.
i'm myself a m$ foe of the 1st hour (started hacking w/ Linux on my home PC back in 1995...) and practically the only reason i still have a LostDOS partition on my lappy is because it is the only way to update my navigation system
thus i was very thrilled when NOKIA finally added a SIM & 3G to their MID serie (aka 770 / N8x0 and finally N900) to be able to have a Linux / GNU computer in my pocket and having a wp7 device (even from NOKIA)...
i'd rather use my N95

but, having wp7 becoming the dominant OS in mobile phone market and MeeGo being binary compatible w/ Intel CPUs would mean that NOKIA could distribute MeeGo device without having to worry about the CPU & all that stuff.
just like any PC manufacturer today can build a PC from standard parts (even CPUs from AMD, for that matter...) and put any Linux / GNU (or LostDOS if they want to) on it without having to worry about compatibility
a no-brainer...
