- Except for sometimes.

Sorry, just borrowing a Kerry tactic there.

Actually, the only reason I broke my rule of one post a day (or less) is because I found, on a liberal site, this excellent article on Cindy Sheehan. I really feel for the lady; she lost her son in the Iraq war, after all. But losing a loved one gives a person no more rights to vet against a good government any more than stumbling gives a person rights to vet against gravity.

Anyway, these are my beliefs, they don’t have to be yours, they should be though… maybe I should stop before I get into too much trouble…

I give every project of yours five stars. There is nobody happier, more committed, or more enthusiastic about your products than I.

However, the idea of a Linux distribution branded with your name sends chills up my spine. There are countless distributions of Linux, ranging from professional to ludicrous. I fear that your endeavour would only be a drop in the bucket.

Furthermore, if your plans for OS domination succeeded (even though I would consider your current accomplishments a fine success), the world would be shaken. If Windows goes, computers will also go. Two OS’s cannot coincide peacefully; either Windows or your offering will rise, and the other will fail. If yours fails, it will be the first of Google to lose; if Windows falls, the unimaginable will happen. A patchwork-quilt of mis-knit OS’s, a petty collection of warlords and their followers.

Sincerely,
Daquell
