The people that post jokes about how this will take chrashes to the next level and stuff like that seem to forget that we're talking about Ford. It's not like Windows is going to be the weak point anyway.
Basically it says something like "Your sourcecode is to be available, penguins are to be worshipped, but are to be referred to as GNU/Penguins, and men are not to shave". If you don't care about all that, you can skip to the end, which is a good part and has Marvin in it.
This is the one thing that keeps people from running Linux on their desktops! We normal users don't want to fiddle around with the commandline and stuff like that, we need a point-and-click-interface to compromise the security of our computers! Trust me, until this is fixed, Linux has no hope of ever becoming a serious competitor to Windows.
... will also try to replicate Apple's simple approach to providing an integrated, seamless ecosystem for digital media is seen as the key to its success with iPod/iTunes...
So, does this mean DRM, low quality wma-files, and dependancy on WMP? I guess it does, as they are targeting the iPod. Then again, I never wanted an iPod either.
But what if Microsoft would release a player with support for Vorbis and Flac, with great sound quality and a powerful equalizer, that you could just drag songs to from Windows Explorer (or any file manager)? Would that mean we should start preparing for the release of DNF, too?

We're obviously talking "free as in beer" here, but still... imagine Richard Stallman reading that headline.

Yeah, that must really slow it down. With the massive amount of air in space and all...
Why does the money go to "the record industry", and not these "hungry artists"?

In Soviet Russia, the overlords reprogram you. Of course, that's more a matter of brainwashing than mindstorming.
Wouldn't that be GNU/Jokes?
