Mandriva's Open Letter To Steve Ballmer
An anonymous reader writes "An entry on the Mandriva Blog, written by Mandriva CEO François Bancilhon, says that the Nigerian government, after ordering thousands of Classmate PCs with Mandriva Linux installed, has suddenly decided that they will instead install Windows. They will pay for the pre-loaded Mandriva Linux on the low-cost computing devices intended for children in the developing world, but immmediately replace the OS. The blog doesn't quite use the 'B' word but does suggest that this was not a decision that the Nigerian government made on its own."
Who wants to bet that, with a name like that, he's a geek who actually gets laid a lot?
I prefer Flambe as apposed flamebait.
...and would also kindly send a picture of them holding a sign that says, "p wnd b/y sh iv er me timb3rs".
Apology to Ubuntu forum.
