How to attempt to create a bug with Ubuntu
7
------------------------------------------
Step 1. Install Ubuntu on a random PC.
http://www.ubuntu.com/
Step 2. Remove the Ubuntu hard drive.
Step 3. Walk to a different PC with different motherboard, graphics card,
network card, monitor, mouse, keyboard, bluetooth, wifi,
chipset, printer, webcam and audio system.
Step 4. Connect PC direct to the internet without a firewall or router.
Step 5. Plug in Ubuntu hard drive.
Step 6. Press the power button and boot straight back into Linux.
20 to 40 seconds to boot with modern PC and start browsing internet
and finish downloading first google page.
So, OK I admit that wouldn't have worked.
So next up is some deliberate vandalism and sabotage.
Lets yank out the ethernet cable and then run firefox.
<yank!>
Err... nope - no failure - firefox is still working!!!!
Doh!!
Its still working if you live in London (or any major UK city)
and you have a wifi on your PC/netbook and you are signed
up for BT Openzone. They have 2.8 million wifi sites around
all the major cities and towns:

Clarification needed : to discover the existing bugs which are mostly
already logged and waiting for Keith and his army of Bearded Coders to
fix .. "for free"....

Even Chuck Norris can't sabotage Linux.

That's true.
Linux is already sabotaged.

If Chuck Norris has 56 cents, and Bill Gates has 56 billion dollars,
Chuck Norris has more money.

Of course they can.
DFS and Hadron as well as myself have actually used Linux.
We know it's sabotaged by itself.
I doubt Chuck Norris even knows what it is.
If I were advocating Linux to Chuck Norris I would point him toward
Marti or Shearman as die "hard" Linux users........
That would be, ahem, interesting.
Don't you think?

I'd like to offer a third explanation.
Linux can seen when dofoo or quack is coming.
Its a little bit of code AI code in the webcam
driver that some joker put in and others
have applauded over.
