Inspired by this comment over on Jerkface.

Has a nice ring to it, don’t you think? Of course, it’s let down a bit by the fact that the Loons can’t even duplicate. (Or, in Stallman’s case, replicate.)

Oh, and it has nothing to do with the TM, but check out this flame from lower down in the comments:

And for the last time I am not in any “movement” I use, in varying amounts: Windows Vista, Mandriva 2009.1, Mac OSX,Beos5,OS\2,Solaris,IRIX,HP-UX , AIX,AROS,Amiga OS,Syllable,Reactos,Openstep, Nextstep,MS-DOS,Haiku,Tru64, Macos 9,QNX,OpenBSD, and Unixware. Most of these are for specific hardware (eg. IRIX on my Octane) or specific jobs(eg. MS-DOS to run my Amateur radio programming software.)Each having faults and foibles.

Way to go, googling for every OS in existence. I suspect the loon uses

  • Vista for everyday use
  • Mandriva (why? Why?) for compiling “Hello World!”
  • MS-DOS for … wait! What the hell was that?

It’s innovative if it comes from Stallman and co. It’s a shameless rip-off if Microsoft does it.

With all those OSes, one has to wonder if he actually has time to use a computer for anything.

And as per usual, Linux criticism is only permitted if other OSes are criticized too.

Then next generation of people are always forks anyway.

“I am not talking about just linux as an alternative, there is also the BSD’s, Macos, QNX as examples.”
Last time I checked QNX was a RTOS for embedded systems.

hmmm AIX, I’m totally buying that… oh wait, it only runs on IBM POWER and IBM z/360… sure sounds logical that he’d have a mainframe at home! Who doesn’t?

Tru64 runs only on Alpha and HP-UX only on PA RISC or IA64…. hmmm a mainframe and a ton of expensive servers at home!

If that’s not credible, then I don’t know…
