Comment BOBIX!! (Score 1) 207
Ok, you could call it GNU/Linux, you could call it (as the editorial suggests) X/Linux. There's also the argument about how to pronounce Linux. Lets kill two birds with one stone here. We once had the following conversation at work :
"LIEnux? you said LIEnux!!! you heretic!"
"I slipped. bad habit. sorry i can't help it"
"this is bad for reputation sort it out."
"well if Linus didn't have such a stupid name we wouldn't be in this predicament"
"so what are you suggesting?"
"well, we'd hardly have this problem if he was called 'Bob Torvolds' now, would we?"
"what, 'BOBIX'???"
"why not?"
"you're right. I like it"
and so the deed was done. lilo.conf's were changed officewide.
Bobix - the OS made by Richard Stallman and some smug Finnish businessman amongst others.
