Installing Linux On A Wal-Mart OS-less machine

Azar writes "An article at Newsforge details the experience of installing Linux on Wal-Mart's OS-less PC. It states: 'A few months ago, super-sized discount store Wal-Mart made the headlines in the Linux world by becoming the first major U.S. retailer to offer PCs without Windows preloaded...While this was widely hailed in the Open Source community as a victory over the "Microsoft tax," which usually afflicts buyers of Linux PCs, one major question remained unanswered: How well do these machines support Linux?' Here is your answer." Newsforge is owned by OSDN, which also owns Slashdot, is all part of the sinister Andover keiretsu.

    THE CUCUMBER AND BEST FRIEND SESSION

    Hey hey, CmdrTaco here. I have a story in the high school section about my first time, which was with my little brother's hottie friend a couple of months ago.

    Anyway, as with most of us guys, masturbation has always been a big part of my life. Ever since I can remember, I've been choking the chicken on a daily basis. Starting puberty at 11, I've masturbated at least once a day ever since. If I miss a day, then I more than make up for it the next time. So, masturbating at least 7 times a week for the past 6 years or so, (I'm now 17), that adds up to a fair amount of cum ejaculated from my ball sac!

    One of my favourite things to do while wanking is to stick phallic shaped objects up my ass. These have included my fingers, dildoes, cucumbers and anything basically resembling a cock!

    Laying spread-eagled on my bed one day, slowly stroking my uncut 6.5" dick, I massaged my hairless balls between my fingers, moaning loudly. I reached under my bed, feeling for my newly purchased friend, Mr. Cucumber...

    Finding the vegetable, I grabbed the lube and slowly lubed it up, spreading some on my expectant asshole. Thinking of what lay ahead, I slid a finger up my puckered boy hole. Then two. After adding a third, I thought it was enough so I set about getting the cucumber ready again.

    Rubbing my lubed up swollen knob sent shivers of delight down my back. Doing that was gonna make me cum if I didn't stop! My balls lobbed from side to side with the sudden pick up of pace with which I was beating my meat. I picked up the cucumber and placed the rounded end against my hole, feeling myself opening up for the glorious pleasure maker. Slipping it in sent huge ripples of delight through me. I slowly slid the vegetable in and out, all the time jerking off. After a few minutes of furious beating and fucking, I was very close to cumming.

    "Knock, knock...," was all I heard before my best friend Hemos barged in with an armful of school books.

    "Whoa! What the hell?" was his shocked response to my little bit of exhibitionism, before bursting into a fit of laughter.

    With my gorgeous best friend watching, a cucumber lodged up my ass and my frantically jacking off, it only took me about ten seconds more to burst forth with my sticky white juice. A huge glob flew at Hemos and landed at his feet, before I threw my legs in the air, with the rest of my cum landing on my chest and face.

    With Hemos's raucous laughter still in my ears, I slowly pulled my cock, easing the last remaining drops of cum out, putting my fingers to my lips.

    "Man, that's fuckin' sick, eating your own cum," he said, grinning.

    "Yeah, well, I like the taste," I smiled, "and don't deny you don't do it!" I said, before wiping my finger over each drop of cum on my body and taking it to my hungry mouth.

    Hemos continued laughing and started walking out.

    "Meet you out front in 5," he said, "give you some time to clean up."

    He strolled out, still shaking his head and laughing.

    I was very satisfied. Although I have no doubts that Hemos was totally straight, it didn't hurt to fantasise about my tanned and gorgeous friend. His face and body are a recurring image in my masturbatory fantasies.

    Did it EVER occur to you people that, uhh... just maybe... Walmart has no intentions whatsoever of selling these to you? None! At all! They could care less about any person who reads slashdot! You don't matter! The only computer without an OS from Walmart that's going to be sold to a competent computer user is the one used for this review. Don't applaud Walmart, don't give them a hand, don't go buy something there. This is not, in any way, an advancement in the open-source movement!

    Now, maybe some of you can get a clue!

    Kinda funny how a fascist, ugly*,bullying ignoramus like Rush Limbaugh gets away with his cowardly "unguested confrontation" approach and actually influences politics and someone with a clue like Hightower, who is as anti-fascist as they come, gets called a fascist.

    Truth is - Walmart would be right at home with the Nazis. They pulled a t-shirt from the shelves on the grounds that it was offensive. It's message: "Someday a woman will be president." They will introduce a line of chadors soon, I expect.

    *fair game ever since he attacked the Clinton's teenage daughter on the grounds of personal appearance - people who live in glass houses should not detonate bombs in their living room.
