I don't know that this is the first. Funtoo has been around for much longer and is a "real OS" rather than a internet box only OS. I'd be interested in how they think they compare, but I also don't think that people interested in linux in general would find webconverger a useful OS over Funtoo.

The only time I've *ever* clicked on a web banner intentionally, it was a flash banner, and the darn thing didn't work anyway. And that was..once. In the last ...14 years. I just don't see who is clicking this crap in the first place.

I'm trying to inform you of the common arguments in this debate. There are many good arguments on both sides. That slashdot story had many good comments on both sides. NOT 'EVIDENCE ON MY SIDE.' The wikipedia page has good info, perhaps laid out better for you to read:

It is good to debate things, but to be a jerk about it (ie. MY WAY OR THE HIGHWAY!) is not good for debate, nor does it make you look like an intelligent person. (Even though that is Bush's motto.)

Put up, or be exposed as either a dupe or bald-faced liar.

Nor do comments like that.

If you have any dignity for yourself left, please stop.
