Yeah, it was also an entirely ignorant group of people doing the occupying. I can understand fighting "Big Brother" but a bunch of hippies and hipsters getting together to camp and do drugs isn't really the way to do it and be taken seriously.

I'm pretty sure those that have been using *nix all this time would have dropped it if they cared that much. For many of us the value of *nix is in a GUI-less environment and seeing articles like this is just evidence of how far the open environment has come.
I still use Windows on my primary desktop and am forced to use a Macbook for work but every server running every one of my products/projects is some flavor of Linux because of the stability. Now that's without a doubt a more important "feature" than some new way to manage your desktop environment, IMO.
