Now, I don't know whether this is meant to be a tongue in cheek remark or not, but if you extract the key words - "Microsoft", "Linux", "World Domination" you can only arrive at the conclusion that Linux is a wholly owned subsidiary of Microsoft ;-) > -- > \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith > \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au > \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org > \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
