Thanks Steve! In the latest survey, the Queen of England has switched from Linux to IIS. Two years ago the Queen of England became an unlikely icon for the Linux revolution when her webmaster replaced Solaris as the platform for the Royal Family's site, citing the better price/performance of the Dell/Linux platform over the previous incumbent, Sun/Solaris. The open source community celebrated and speculated on when the Apache web server might receive the "By Royal Appointment" moniker. This week the site has changed platforms again, this time to Microsoft-IIS. | ||

Yep. This past week I saw an interesting situation unfold. In a local newsgroup another one of the Linux kiddies posted their typical "Microsoft sux! Everybody should install Linux!"
Now in the past usually only I would waste my time responding to a troll like this to make fun of them. This time no fewer than a dozen people responded to him with "Well maybe if Linux actually did something, it'd be useful." messages. The hype is dead... We can move on now, like the Queen just did. :) |

#8. Naw, this is still funny. I remember when this was announced with much fanfare two years ago.
