I may be able to answer this, as it was me who was questioning him 
previously on what happened, at least until he got all butt-hurt and 
didn't want to talk about it any more.

Going from memory, but I think he "observed" that the SBBS installer 
(which of course there isn't even one of in Linux), completely trashed 
(as in deleted entire directories) his hard disk.  Twice, on two 
attempts.  I told him I didn't think that was possible, and that I've 
never heard of that ever happening to anyone else, ever.  That's about 
as far as it got.

Hopefully he'll expand/clarify on all that.
