I guess this is the "get lost" mail he is referring to.
Yes, it is a damn fair assessment. When you pay your taxes, do you go

something like:
Torvalds,
I have been hearing very good things about Linux from people whose
opinions I value highly. I have a MacBook and a Windows PC on which
I'd like to run Linux "dual-boot" with the existing operating system.
Could you please recommend a distribution and provide detailed
installation instructions for each. Do you need to know the exact
models? Do you need to know which version of Mac and Windows I am
running? I am happy to provide that information if necessary.
Look forward to hearing from you soon, and please keep up the good work!
Cheers,
