[aklug] Better Idea

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Instead of all this arguing about attracting Linux users, why don't we
go back to that old BB idea?: create a Trojan that converts Windows
systems over to Linux. Just wrap a self-extracting Linux image inside a
a zip file, call it "michael_jacksons_best_hits.zip", and put it on
bittorrent.

One morning everybody wakes up and they're all starting at a black
screen, a dollar sign, and a blinking cursor. Everyone who learns how to
use the CLI becomes a contributing Linux guru, and everybody else gets
free health care. ;)

And if we really wanted to weed out the boys from the men, we could give
them stripped down systems with only the "ash" shell, plus grep, sed,
awk, wget, and gcc and see how many people manage to get a usable system
put together. Kind of like one of those survivor reality T.V. shows.
