More SA stuff, now they bash Linux
The same place that made that article on pcRicers, released a review of linux. It's pretty bad they basically said windows ME is the best OS. It's obviously a joke, but that seems a little more disturbing than funny.

It's Something Awful. They're a humor site. It's not serious. If anyone thinks that what the post is actual news or truthful, they deserve what they get.

It's actually not so far away from the truth to be honest with you. If you're an average Joe who has a computer, what does Linux actually offer you? As a technical person, given the number of times I've had to wrestle with Linux to get it to do what I want, it's certainly not the "best OS" for the desktop.
