It's a sign Linux is hurting. Gateway dropped them. Look for MS to assimilate soon (flame suit firmly in place!)

Assimilation is impossible, since nobody owns the source. Might as well assimilate ones and zeros.

Yeah..."Linux" is really hurting.

FREE CLUE: Linux is not a company.

Not even close. It's catching on like wildfire, actually. It'll be a while before it really catches on for the home PC user (if every, really), but that's not the target marget anyway. Linux is an Open Source version of UNIX, pure and simple, and it is an excellent operating system.

No flame suit is needed. Knowledgeable Linux desktop users and/or network/system admins know that you don't know what you are talking about. Since we know that, why flame?
