This is almost as accurate of a practical analogy as the old "If Cars Were Like OS's" jokes.

P.S.
Yes, I am aware linux was not ON the car. This is a joke, youre too serious.
Also, do to browser craptacularity (WTF, its Firefox!) I had to type the link, so sorry if it doesnt work. It should be on the homepage of that site anyway.]]>May 29th 2007 8:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/May 29th 2007 3:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/May 29th 2007 1:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/May 29th 2007 1:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/May 29th 2007 5:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/]]>May 29th 2007 1:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/

> publicity? Big crash first or ends in 7th?

Funny how "wins race," "sets new speed record" etc. were not options. :-)

Still, you have a point about publicity. Why, hardly anyone in this country knew the name of "Hindenburg" prior to May 1937. LOL

It's such GOOD publicity, maybe they can use the crash footage in Linux marketing. "Linux! [tire screeeeech] [WHAMMM!!!]"

It's life, deal with it. You go to Slashdot and you're gonna get an anti MS/Conservative/etc. forum base. You go to Bink.nu and you're gonna get an anti Apple/*nix/etc. forum base. You come here and pretty much everything's a target.

Everyone doesn't have to agree with you, me or the site it's posted on. We're all "fanboys" over something. Roll with the punches and just move along on to the next post.]]>May 29th 2007 2:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/May 29th 2007 2:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/May 29th 2007 2:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/29/linux-car-first-to-crash-at-indianapolis-500/http://fakesteve.blogspot.com/2007/05/linux-car-finishes-dead-last-at-indy-we.html
