“A recent survey of Linux users found that the two main
factors in their migration to Linux was its stability and that it
made them feel intellectually superior. Developers promise that
along with USB support there will be increased intellectual
superiority in the upcoming 2.4 kernel release AKA the “Hubris”
kernels.”
…”‘I was impressed by the stability of Linux,’ said Thomas
Azizi ‘and since I’m a loser in pretty much every other facet of my
life, gloating about my OS choice makes me feel great.’
‘Let’s face it. Linux isn’t for dummies,’ said Linux advocate
Dieter Braun, ‘There may have been a Linux for Dummies book, but I
doubt it sold a single copy. I’m sure Windows for Dummies was a
best seller.'”
