Apple and Windows Will Force Linux Underground
eastbayted writes "Tom Yager at InfoWorld predicts: 'At the end of the decade, we'll find that Apple UNIX has overtaken commercial Linux as the second most popular general client and server computing platform behind Windows.' That's not a gloom-and-doom omen for the ever-popular Linux kernel, though, he stresses. While Apple and Microsoft will grapple for dominance of client and server spaces, Linux will be 'the de facto choice for embedded solutions.' And by 'embedded,' Yager means 'specialized.' With a push of a button and a flip of switch, he predicts, you'll be able to create a configured database and a mated J2EE server — all thanks to Linux."
Linux was designed for the cheapskate, to download as much free porn as possible. Nothing stops porn, and the need for people to have it for free. Not to mention free software - the two are the yin and yang of the internet.
In the year 2010, all of the worlds money will be replaced by toilet paper. "Stay lonely" will be the new "goodbye". Apple pie is no longer American, being bought out by the Canadians. Google releases new TattooSense, paying people to get chest-and-back tattoos of ads. George Bush, in a hostile take over, becomes King of the Planet and enslaves all of humanity. He uses his new slave army to move Mt. Everest -- mumbling something about proving an interviewer wrong. Donkey Kong is brought back to life, only to be shot three days later after going nuts in a barrel factory.
ADD rocks.
Hahahahahahahahahaah ahahah hahhah hahahah ha ......
Read radical news here
In the future, no-one will wear pants! The pantsaphogia virus, to be engineered by terrorists in 1999, will leave us all restricted to wearing breezy summer dresses or short-shorts.
In the future, the only colors allowed will be those based on citrus. This will be mandated by the Tangerine Council world government, headquartered in Morocco. In an effort to reintroduce all the beautiful colors of the world into human products, scientists will genetically engineer strains of lemon with tunable 48-bit color, with the exception of mauve, and there will be much rejoicing.
In the future, spammers will form a revolutionary movement to fight for their right to speech, and incite a rebellion. The rebellion will be crushed mercilessly, but create the foundations for the great Spam Wars of 2015.
That's all for now.

like dressing up a nightclub bouncer in a pixie costume.
This actually sounds like quite a good idea to me.
...but but but... they're so cute. The server may not be fast (nor cheap)---in fact, it may not even work at all---but it will be the cutest server in the whole datacenter (the one and only reason why people like Apple).

Cars are a vendor lock in solution, and not many people like that. Cars are slower than flying. Cars aren't a serious solution.
I would cream my pants if I ever saw porn in .ogg format, literally as it were.
P.S. This was the first time I've ever gotten to use literally properly.
If your shipment of Kool-Aid has not yet arrived please call Apple Support and they will help you track down your shipment of Kool-Aid and if necessary order you replacements if the originals were lost. The very last thing us here at Apple Computer Support Department want is any of the public to ever have to go through Kool-Aid withdrawl.
Sincerely

What clubs do you hang out at?
Brought to you by Team SPAM! where we believe: "Information in the noise!"
Where's the 8 core Mac again?
I have an 8 core Dell that's old enough to be cycled out of service.
A Pirate and a Puritan look the same on a balance sheet.
Not to worry AC, the Linux mods have finally rolled out of bed. :-)
