I think that this is pretty awesome, actually!  I wish she had posted
it and, in fact, think that it should be entered into the FAQ without
delay!  The humorous nature of it aside, it DOES actually describe
some of the fundamental differences between the two systems in
language that even the most rank beginner (or ones that shower) could
understand.

I'm saving this, and may even generate an SGML version at some
point.. :-)
