, Ballmer, Jobs, and Zuckerberg, and even Torvalds aren't on the font lines of advancing an agenda. And they also didn't write posts about being glad a competitor was dead the day after that death (don't even try to say Stallman didn't say he was glad, see my comment above a little ways on why that argument is total bunk). Those guys aren't looking for controversy like Stallman. They do their job, get things done, and don't whine constantly like RMS. The others you mention certainly do get their fair share of ad nominee attacks and they don't even set themselves up for it like Stallman. RMS has an appropriate last name as he really is stalling the progress of the FSF.
