Novell releases Get a Mac spoofs

tuaw.com — The first video plays off the Win/Mac rivalry and pokes fun at how the industry often ignores Linux and its surprising (to some) user base size. The second video is arguably funnier, as it does a great job of poking fun at the way MS and Apple market their products while pointing out open source software's advantage of being a community effort.

    So now there isn't a Mac community--or, presumably, it only exists when you want to abuse it for attitudes you ascribe to it.

    Shame "Linux"--i.e., none of the Linux distros--can come up with a halfway decent desktop environment, as opposed to slavish, and poor, copies of what Microsoft does. And I say this as someone who has a Linux distro on a spare laptop.

    As for Novell, they are in Microsoft's pocket now, anyway.
  • jasontromm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I like the default desktop that comes with Ubuntu. Much better than Windows.
  • jasontromm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Linux is a lot better looking than those Mac and PC goofs. ;-)
