A man answers a spam advertisement -- and it's all TRUE!
That's right: either he gets 1 Million by helping a man in Nigeria, or
anatomy reshapes itself in beneficial ways, or he finds love at the college
dorm....

Re: Possible Twilight Zone episodes.
How about one where programmers totally ignored
the fact that their customers are running Windows.
Yes, it could be set in the future in a small isolated community.
Because by 2010, we'll all be running Linux.

Bailo actually learns something about using Linux, after 20 years of
using it.
Unlikely.
[1] FreeBSD? Hello?
[2] Solaris might still be around, a shadowy remnant of its former self.
[3] VMS aficionados aren't quite dead yet. :-)
[4] Linux plays all sorts of weird games on higher hardware. Sort of
like VmWare on steroids, if you will. I'd have to look up the
details.
[5] The Enterprise Services Bus or similar architecture
may make all this irrelevant, if widely adopted.
It's not what language or OS implements a service,
but how well (and how quickly) it communicates with
the requester and/or broker.

It's still legal to go .sigless.
By my very detailed and highly accurate account,
you have plonked Bailo exactly 1000 times.
Surely this is cause for celebration ... No ?
Re: Ideas for new episodes of the Twilight Zone.
You suggested,
" Bailo actually learns something about using Linux,

Were live in the age of reality TV ... It would never fly.
As his 1000th ploink, surely I get a prize.
K-Mart would do it.
