You'd think those silly Chinese would have learned from the time they tried to launch one of their emperors into space in the 1400s by putting hundreds of paper tube rockets on his throne. He blew up. We silly round eyes have been in space for 40 years, and now you guys think it is a huge achievement? Dammit, Lance Bass was trying to get to go in space. The sad thing is he was probably closer than either two of those nations. Then again, it is the same bassackward corner of the world where cambodians had to be educated on how to use an escalater just a few months ago. Ke...Ke...Ke...
Heh heh,
you could put the bookshelf unit... inside the case. And run the power cord out from the side. And have the speakers outside the case. Heh heh. And if it doesn't fit, disassemble it. And mount it sideways if you have to. I mean it, like, already has a power supply and drive unit and all. And, like, doesn't cost money. Which is good. Totally.

Dear Microsoft,
I am a loonix user and was wondering whether.net could be used with my free distro with mono. I feel that even though you are a company that has to profit off of the products it puts out, unlike the creators of my free operating system, I should be able to use your framework even though your company had to hand large burlap bags full of cash to programmers while the developed.net.
Could you please clarify why you do not want to share your source code with the rest of the world? Please don't use any complex terms like "loss of profit" or "business model" that I or any other loonix user couldn't understand. I am deeply interested in this subject and would like to learn more about why you have to stand in the way of everything the loonix community does to bridge the gap between Windows and Loonix.

Dear Cmdr Adolf Torvalds,
To answer your question, we at Microsoft believe that whatever source code we create is actually ours unless we release it. You are right that we do have to make a profit off our software and that is the primary reason that we are not sharing the majority of our source code. If we were to release our source code, our products would cease to be proprietary and thus could be recompiled and sold by anyone. We are opposed to Loonix because just like many examples in other fields such as the Pepsi/Coca Cola rivalry, that Loonix is a direct threat to our profitability. Therefore we cannot help but oppose a rival and hope for more opposition to Loonix like SCO. I hope this answers your questions.
I would now like to inform you of an upcoming special release of windows specially made for Loonix users. Unveiling October 31st, WindowsGA has been specially produced in accordance to thousands of interviews with Loonix users. Instead of the drab windows interface prior to the release of WindowsGA, the colors will be flamboyant in pink and purple. Windows Media Player will now have the option to download new gay porn starring such names as Steve Wozniak and Mike Markkula. Internet explorer has been reconfigured to automatically search for local bath houses and gay clubs. In addition to that, daily updates for the more socially challenged will include such subjects as "how to get out of your mother's basement" and "skintones: monitor tans are not in for this fall". The recycle bin has been completely revamped to completely (yes, I said completely) remove all child porn from your machine. If you pre order WindowsGA before October 15th (hurry) Microsoft will include a free force feedback buttplug, guaranteed to put a smile on every Loonix user's face.
Thank you very much, Burt Hodgson Microsft Help Desk
