The only damage was to Redhat. None of the Linux bigwigs participated. Linus, Alan Cox, Jeremy Alison... none of them participated or endorsed the benchmarks. Linux is pulling through this one pretty well. And the fact that Mindcraft is still involved taints all results in the eyes of the journalistic community. As well as the fact that Apache was what was tested, not the faster web servers.
