What a joke.  They have to be hard up to take ads that disparage the
preferred OS of their readership.  And M$, those marketing clowns --
why don't they just walk around OSCON jamming their fingers into
peoples' chests?  It's like they are spoiling for a fight they can't
win.

And here I thought http://xkcd.com/ would be the funniest thing I saw today.
