The first time I read that I thought it was serious.
It is satire of course.

Linux® is also being criticized by animal rights activists, because each Linux® machine needs a real living penguin within the machine's case (for cooling reasons). If the Linux® upswing continues, the activists fear all members of the penguin species might be eradicated by 2007.

Reminds me of spreadinternetexplorer.com.

The bad thing there is that some poeple actually think it's genuine. I posted some silly things there about commie hackers pushing free software who might soon try to turn the American youth into satanists and got some awful flames back from people who clearly can't get a joke.

Haha! So cool! The things with the penguin that needs to be sacrificed to get Linux running and Osama Bin Laden's laptop were really funny :lol:. The problem is so many people take it seriously... I mean... COME ON! It's written as if it were for real but if you pay a bit of attention (and also know a bit about computers) you know the guy who wrote it was laughing all the way trough it.

P.S.: If Nexuiz 1.5 runs better on my open Suse 10 than Win XP SP 2, is Nexuiz 1.5 evil? If so, than GOOD :twisted:.

[edit]: Just read the second. Now I know why I like my desktop so much - it looks like I am on LSD :lol:.
