    GNAA / Google confirms: Linux is dying.
    By GNAA Staff

    Here you have it: it's official; Google confirms: Desktop Linux is dying.

    Now, you might be thinking this is just another cut & paste troll based on the typical *BSD is dying bullshit.
    It isn't.
    As you might have know, your favorite search engine, Google, has been running a little statistics service, called "Zeitgeist".
    Since about a year ago, they started providing statistics of the operating systems used to access their search engine worldwide.
    I will let the numbers speak for themselves:

    Operating Systems Accessing Google in January 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in March 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in April 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in May 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in June 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in July 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in August 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in September 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in November 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in December 2002
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in January 2003
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in February 2003
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in April 2003

    Operating Systems Accessing Google in September 2003
    Operating Systems Accessing Google in November 2003

    If you've looked at even a few of these links, you don't need to be a Kreskin to predict Desktop Linux's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Desktop Linux faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Linux on Desktop because Linux is dying. Things are looking very bad for Linux on Desktop. As many of us are already aware, Linux on Desktop continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.

    According to Google Zeitgeist, there are about 80% of Internet Explorer 6 users. The only platform supporting Internet Explorer 6 is, of course, Microsoft Windows. These statistics are consistent with the earlier presented graphs of the operating systems used to access Google, with the Windows family consistently taking the top 3 ranks. Out of remaining 20%, the split is even between MSIE 5.5, MSIE 5.0, both Windows-only browsers. Netsca

    GNAA Ported to XBOX GNAA Ported to XBOX
    By GNAA staff
    New York, NY - GNAA (Gay Nigger Association of America) this afternoon announced completion of a project started almost 6 months ago, porting of Windows CE.NET environment to Microsoft's XBOX gaming platform.

    In a shocking announcement this afternoon, GNAA representative lysol demonstrated the XBOX running Microsoft's own Windows CE.NET 4.2 operating system.
    "This is quite an important achievement," lysol began. "By porting Windows CE to XBOX, GNAA will be able to create a beowulf cluster of all XBOXes and use them to recruit more gay niggers. Next step will naturally be porting our GNAAOS framework to the new system, which will allow us to highly increase our gay nigger membership.
    Unlike the Microsoft's custom OS, based on Windows 2000 kernel currently running on the XBOX, with a custom (and somewhat limited API), Windows CE.NET will allow running a whole range of Win32 applications on the XBOX by simply recompiling them. Because the differences between Windows CE.NET Win32 API are minimal, any type of gay nigger software can be easily ported to run on the new platform. GNAA is expecting to begin work on porting GNAAOS framework "real soon now", according to GNAA representative goat-see.
