Chipmakers Angling For Support
defence budget writes "According to this article at CNet, what once happened with Intel and Microsoft might be happening with Linux, AMD and Intel. Apparently "In a sign of how strategic Linux has become, AMD and Intel are angling to lure open-source programmers to their future chip designs". I cannot see how the low end market will react to this, but surely the high end market should see the potential advantages in migrating to systems running on hardware custom built for Linux?"
A FRICKING NEWS PIECE!
Slashdot website creator, Rob "CmdrTaco" Malda, was rushed to the hospital this afternoon after having his penis sliced off. Authorities say the accident involved Rob's penis, his computer, and an illegal computer device imported from China that was designed to stimulate the penis during cyber-sex. The authorities aren't releasing many details yet as to how it happened, but they suspect that the device malfunctioned which caused his penis to be sliced off. However, there is speculation among the Slashdot community that the Open Source Operating System "Linux" is to blame, for its faulty structure and lack of professional development. There is no word of whether there was any foul-play involved from hackers amongst the Linux community

I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.
The slasdot community will surely be in mouring over the passing of this great man
GOATSE MAN, DEAD AT 79

Even if you never enjoyed his website, you've probably clicked on it by accident. Truly an american icon.
I just heard some joyful news on talk radio - pharao writer Ra-Psat-Prom was found alive in his Egyptian tomb this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will welcome him - even if you don't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an ancient icon.
It is good when Linux wins. I think Linux is the best. That is why I use Linux.
