Alan Cox on a Chip

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the prince-albert-in-a-can dept.

Azar writes "Beware Intel. Be afraid AMD. Transmeta has an ace up there sleeve. After perusing the net I came across an amusing satire of Transmeta and the Linux guru, Alan Cox. With proper homage being paid to the man that does so much for the Linux kernel, Alan Cox on a Chip is good for a quick laugh. Be ready to be amazed at "The ultimate Linux platform... it writes drivers for *and* debugs itself!"."

    Yes, but regardless of your high moral ground and karma-whoring, it's a really funny picture.

    Also--as anyone with experience diagnosing Windows problems can tell you--simply because Windows says that you have a hardware problem does not necessarily mean that one has a hardware problem.
