Blasphemy! And also I'm poor, although I guess if I really wanted to run spyware as my kernel I could pirate it.
But yeah, I'm getting the sense those are the two games in town, Linux-wise.
The kernel is fine, it's been in the hands of pretty cool people since at least NT. As for the stuff running on it, well...... ๐๐ถ
