To me, it's a miracle how every tiny article on OSNews.com, or any other tech-site, ends up in people shouting all sorts of nonsense at each other like "Linux is gonna bring back Elvis", "Windows shot president Kennedy", "Linux kept the cold war cold" or "Bill Gates wants to buy the moon and charge people for looking at it". Do these people really know what they are saying, or are they just going with the Open-Source flow? Update: Rebuttal article here.

What's the point of all of this?
To create a computer terminal so easy the most retarded human being could easily use it without breaking it and, God forbid, without thinking?
We seem to be coding for the lowest common denominator instead of asking people to pick up a book and learn a little about computers, like how to use a mouse and type on a keyboard.
The keyboard just eludes some people. Is that because they can't count to 104?
Personally I think we should make fun of anyone who can't use Windows and help anyone who wants to learn *nix by pointing them to where the manual is. We didn't have anyone there to hold our hands. Why does everyone else deserve this type of education? Because all of a sudden computers are relevant? Education is expensive! And this ain't communism, folks.
