Linux on CBC this morning

[Madison Kelly]

Hi all,

   I was wondering if anyone else caught the blurb about Linux this 
morning on CBC?

   They were talking about MS' Windows 7 beta and how it's much better 
than Vista, and how it's something of a mea culpa on MS' part 
acknowledging that Vista is pretty much a failure. Having used it myself 
now for a couple weeks, I agree, but I digress.

   At one point, one of the hosts asked something like "Well, what 
options do people have?". I was expecting the usual "OS X" answer, but 
instead he started raving about Linux. Ubuntu, specifically. He was 
saying how it's almost counter intuitive to say, given Linux's 
reputation, but that distros like Ubuntu have made Linux easier to use 
and "funner" than even OS X.

   Anyway, it was a nice treat to wake up to this morning.
