Linux just like Democracy = FREEDOM for all who truly yearn to be free !

Give Me Linux Or Give Me Death !

F is for fighting, R is for red
Ancestors' blood in battles they've shed.
E, we elect them, E, we eject them,
In the land of the free and the home of the brave.
D for your dying, O, your overture,
M, is for money, you know what that cures
This spells out freedom, it means nothing to me,
As long as there's a DMCA !

Who is the one getting stuck buying new hardware and software just to get
usless glitz? You go give your money to Wintel. I'll buy a fifth of Johnny
Walker Blue.

Gates some more money while I enjoy a nice dram of Scotch Whiskey.

What percentage of the *earth* is using Windows, eh?
Excluding the Chinese, that is.
