“”Linux Sucks, NT Rocks,” the headline blared.
“No, no, no, no, no!”, the old white-bearded fellow shouted
at the new kid. “That’s supposed to be ‘Use Linux, NT Sucks
Rocks’.“
“The diaper-clad cherub chomped down on his cigar. “Look Pops,
you gotta get with the times. Your year in the sun is just about
over. Linux is old news, yesterday’s buzz. Don’t you get it, man?
2000 is the year of 2000, Windows 2000, that is.”
“Showing unbelievable agility, the old man leaps forward and
skillfully slices the cigar in two with his scythe. Startled, 2000
jumps back.”
“Hey, look here, ’99. You had a great year with Linux. That
silly Finlander’s face was everywhere. But you are nearly over.
It’s my turn now and I’m bringing lots of cool stuff to the
table.”
