genixia noted that the BBC was the first to note that Linux has turned 10 today. Happy birthday and congrats to the hackers whose labor pains keep giving us new tarballs.

  2. The best birthday present I can think of.. by Bowie+J.+Poag · · Score: 1, Troll



    The best birthday present I can think to give the Linux community on its 10th birthday is the news that Slashdot casually forgot to mention that trading on VA Linux Systems' stock was halted yesterday during market trading. The quicker this company falls off the radar, the quicker the Linux community can go back to being the way it was before VA came along. Cooperative, fair, and fun, instead of competitive, corrupt, and stressful.

    With that in mind, its easy to say that Linux has a bright future ahead. Here's to another 10.. :)
