Korea Replacing 120,000 Windows with Linux
The Korean government has just signed a contract with Hancom to purchase 120,000 copies of HancomLinux Deluxe 2.0 (which is basically Red Hat OS + tweaks + korean language support + KDE localized) and HancomOffice 2.0. Thats quite a big achievement. Here is Hancom's Press Release about it.
Why would anyone buy 120,000 copies of Linux? Does buying 120,000 copies entitle the users of each machine to a year or two of service? If that's the case, then maybe.. If not, then why not simply buy 1 copy and install it the 120,000 machines?..
What's that supposed to mean? If you're insinuating that only communist governments support "free" software, then I suggest you open up a fucking map.
Remember, there are 2 Korea's: North and South; and for ignorant ass people like you, the former being Communist and the latter being a Republic. Big fucking difference.
Though I don't blame the editor as much for not being more specific about which government the article is referring to, I DO blame your ignorant ass for not reading the article where it actually states which one: South.
Nice try at being witty, dumbass.

My that'll be drafty.
This of course points only to the evil cabal of insulation manufacturers, electricity generators, and natural gas producers, all of whom will clearly benefit by the transition from hermetic glass membranes to the newer & not yet proven cd-rom membrane technology.
Thank god I live in America, where you can pry the Windows from my warm, vibrant home over my dead body!

DO NOT LEAVE IT IS NOT REAL
