    Linux would reach the tops of the Netcraft uptime chart in no time!

    For values of 'no time' slightly greater than three years...

    I'm going to get -infinity for this but, OK.

    this is too much. crap like this, thrown in because it's "kewl", is why the real world doesn't take Linux seriously.

    I want LILO to load my OS, and no more. I can wait until I boot to play games and see the pretty colors.
