Penguins Unite?

[edX]

just ran across another zdnet article i thought people would like to see.

click here to find out how linux is out to rule the world.

or something like that

Uh oh. I feel bad for Linus. I think he's about to go through the "Jesus syndrome", creating a monster that he never intended. In a few hundred years, people on the street corners will be yelling how Linux is the only way to go, and all others will suffer for eternity.

LOL - laughed til i started coughing mental image of that was just too much!!

Born again penguins??

 

[hazmat]

Heh heh. Might have to call them Bourne Again Penguins, though. ;-)

Mac users can be just as bad sometimes. There's a line in Pirates of Silicon Valley: "When did Apple stop being a computer company and start being a religion?"

The PlayStation 2 story sounded interesting. Sony releasing "linux kits" for the PS2 would stir up linux interest in a different group of users.

 

[hazmat]

Yeah. I think fanatics of any sort are a bad thing.

Is it just me or do you think the little penguins should be holding axes behind their backs and foaming at the mout... err, bill?

Then again, beware of the <a href="http://www.hexley.com/">Platypus</a> too.

Cheers,
