Since dict is my tool of choice tonight:

Just in case others get confused here (because I did use the phrase
"sell out"), I make a clear distinction between a company that
maintains a particular Linux distribution "selling out" its users and
the users of that distribution.

The users of a particular Linux distribution are not (until further
evidence is given, at least) "sellouts" if they happen to use a
distribution that isn't my favorite.

Mark.
