The fact that it's linux means the slashdoters will love it, the fact that it's AOL they will hate it. The sheer conflict in the minds of the slashdot readers will cause more than one head to pop.
Also, what kind of a name is "America OnLine France"? Shouldn't it be "France OnLine"? FOL? Hmmm....

Actually it is N9uf (Neuf) Telecom, not AOL that is offering this. All that has happened is that N9uf has acquired the France division of AOL.
