You can say:

No, he can't say that. Because he would be lying then. Like

SuSE 10.1 Open worked fine on my Biostar U8068 Via chipset
motherboard with Celeron 1.7 GHz processor. It was a rather
fickle motherboard with Linux versions after SuSE 6.4 and before
SuSE 10.1.
SuSE 10.1 Open installed first time without a hitch during
default auto install. SuSE 8 and 9 did not during default
install, during hardware probe it would freeze up; only way to
clear was a hard reset. That motherboard was using an early
version of the Via P4M266 chipset, which was short lived. I
installed SuSE Professional 8 by overriding the automatic install
and doing it manually. Then it worked. SuSE 8 did not bring my
system down, once I had successfully installed and configured it.
Debian 3.1 Sarge and Xandros 3.02 OCE also ran fine on my U8068.
nVidia proprietary Linux accelerated graphics ran fine on the
U8068 with GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 4X and 128 MB RAM.
All these and Fedora Core 5 ran fine on my Biostar P4M80-M4
Socket 478 mobo with Celeron 2.93 GHz CPU.
Therefore, I did not find version SuSE 10.1 dangerous and
bringing my system down.
