Fedora Users — For your amusement

Whilst sitting here in front of a 5% routed PCB artwork, feelingincredibly bored, thinking why the hell did I suggest to my bossthose several years ago that I could make a better job of a PCB thanthat idiot contractor who managed to get the silk screen wrong wayround on that tantalum capacitor that went bang.....

An amusing thought occurred to me. Now that discrimination is sowidely illegal, for instance we're not allowed to discriminateagainst people on grounds of race, religion, disability, sex, sexualorientation, etc. etc., it also ought to be illegal to discriminateagainst people on the grounds of the operating system they choose to use.

Just imagine - Nokia would be compelled to provide phone syncsoftware for kaddressbook as well as outlook. We would have MicrosoftOffice for Linux, which could be very healthy, as it would providesome competition for Open Office. Manufacturers of embedded deviceprogrammers would provide driver software for all operating systems.Sales of commercial versions of Qt would go through the roof assomebody in Redmond started buying thousands of copies to reduce thecost of cross platform support.

Anyway, back the PCB and dreaming of my numbers matching theEuromillions draw tomorrow.
