It’s not going to happen. Nice to dream though.

In short: No.
There I said it bury me all you want.
Fuck You and your wishful thinking.
craiig is puts it straight:
No. Shut the fuck up, Linux.
And purpmint008 realistically states:
75% of diggers use Windows!
16% use Macs and the rest use linux or something else…
That’s Digg’s general response to The Register’s article.
It’s funny though. Just a few years ago Macs were dead, Linux hated 3D, and Windows, believe it or not, worked.
Things change. Firefox bit 40% market share in Europe. IE now follows standards instead of trying to set them. PHP was cool, now they say it’s for amateurs. Sun used to make money off Java and Solaris. HP was famous for printers, not servers. Dell had the worst tech support. The list goes on.
If anyone has a chance in changing the world, it’s those who are driven by free will, not big, fat checks.
