Linux The title of the article seems familiar to you? Naturally it would, when you read something like this. But I do state the corresponding sentence isn't even grammatically correct, thereby making it difficult for me to parody. I am sure that Linux is not close to extinction but is rather gaining momentum or at least holding its ground.

I'm the author. Reading through my article again while considering the comments posted here, I see that a lot of stuff in it was badly written / overly caustic / flaming. I apologize, but I do stand by a couple things:

1. Most of the bad grammar is intentional for the purpose of parodying the original article (of course this purpose in itself is malicious and something I probably shouldn't have tried in the first place)

2. Linux is not losing a war or even fighting one

3. Linux is not copying Microsoft

Again, I apologize for this poorly written article and will put more deliberation into future ones.
