    Objective? This is the site that goes nuts everytime something that places MS in a bad light gets posted. You can't fully enjoy Slashdot unless you meet the following conditions:

    - You love *nix and hate MS
    - You hate the MPAA, but love sci-fi/fantasy movies
    - You want cell phones jammed but don't want free-speech supressed
    - You want open source software to be free but are heavily against ad-supported software

    There's no objectivity here. Heh.

    *Hopes everybody's in good humor when they read this*

    I remember scanning japanese netblocks for insecure linux boxes with , and once and a while I'd come across a abandoned turbolinux box.
    Japs liked turbolinux because it came with a jap manual but nobody else around the world was dumb enough to (buy|download) it.
