To a person with that mentality, Bill Gates is implicitly trustworthy 
(i.e. if he says it's true, it must be true by definition, because it's 
a "big company that stands by its products"), while anything Open Source 
is written by h4x0rs and thus must "prove its trustworthiness".

How, you ask them? They don't know, but you'd better "know".  No point 
arguing with them..
