- 1iProd, on 10/10/2007, -1/+28Well, I don't really care. Free stuff ROCKS.
- ChzPlz, on 10/10/2007, -4/+30HOLY *****..... a wordpress site that is still up after 56 diggs!
- ShiverMeBoner, on 10/10/2007, -2/+25Sadly, this has made the front page a few times already. Blogspam and dupe.

Ahh, I long for better, younger Digg days :'( - schestowitz, on 10/10/2007, -5/+27Back to 2006, aren't we?
- Armyguy120, on 10/24/2007, -17/+34I honestly don't get this 'Powered by' *****. Ill be watching TV and the programs refer to themselves as "Powered by" the following commercials. Literally, it makes no sense and metaphorically, its retarded. I hate this expression.
- hadimirza, on 03/26/2008, -13/+24HOLY *****....STICKERS!!!!
- TomFrost, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10I tend to power all my stuff with alternating current. But I guess "Powered by PSE&G Electric Company" just doesn't have quite the same ring to it.
- Azimuth1, on 10/10/2007, -3/+13Would I be able to get them from the UK?
- Gomek, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11It's a distro. It's going to be around a while. Are you sick of hearing about OS X? Are you sick of hearing about Microsoft? I'm more tired of seeing people complaining in every Ubuntu-related article about how sick they are of Ubuntu-related articles than I am of the actual Ubuntu-related articles!
Sure, Ubuntu is a Linux distro. I love Linux, but I'm not going to complain every time I see something refer to Ubuntu or Sabayon or Fedora instead of Linux. I don't complain when people don't refer to OSX as BSD. Why should Ubuntu be treated differently? - Punjabdasher, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Is it me or is this the nth time this has been on here?
- bmnrocks, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Buried for the lame repeat, just link to the ORIGINAL website dickwad.
http://system76.com/article_info.php?articles_id=9 - xswag, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Blogspam with some old news. I got stickers last year. BURY this kind of crap!!
- slapthemonkey, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5This is old one.
- ateoto, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I know, what losers! Reading a bunch of comments on a Digg story and then making fun of people on the Internet is what gets you chicks. NEEEERRRRDDDDDSSSSSS!
- Spr0k3t, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I think you've missed a few. I know I've seen this on the front page numerous times.
- jafer24, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4This is so old, give us some new stuff once in a while!
- thecrazymonk86, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6

B76 1AL UK - Andos, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I want this sticker on my computer:
"Powered by... electricity" - konstantinos88, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3So this is what a WordPress blog looks like... Interesting.
- kindrobot, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4spam? blogspam? In any case I just found out where I'm buying my next machine.
- Armor1901, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Those of you bitching about it being old news, you DO understand that digg's user base grows every day, don't you? And that things that were on a ***** year ago just MAY be new to a ***** load of people?
- neodorian, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Right...that's why I see countless Apple stickers on car windows around hipster hangouts in the city.
Face it. Stickers are fun. - MrKC, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2This story was pulled from the front page after 1310 diggs. Digg and MS don't want you to see this story. Try doing a search for it, you will not find it. Here is the link.
http://digg.com/tech_news/Microsoft_DIGG_New_Partnership_Launches_MS_Press_Release - MavRevMatt, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2What the *****'s with people and stickers on their machines?
- vonskippy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I'd be excited......if I was 4 years old.
- srusso, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4I sent away for some... just now... I want them, I have started switching my family to Ubuntu, it would be cool to put stickers on their system once they installed it!
- Erowid, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Spr0k3t beat me to it, digg down :)
- cyssero, on 04/18/2009, -0/+2What's maybe worse than 'Powered by' is the DREADED "Microsoft tax". I can feel it creeping up on me!
Not. - TechCF, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Well marketing and brand name building works
- Spr0k3t, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1USA is worse than that...
program introduction... commercial... portion of program... commercial... interlude of longer commercials... more commercials... more program... commercial... tune in next time to see what happens. The very reason I stopped watching TV for the most part. - adidax, on 10/10/2007, -3/+4Get it from dell. Just configured the exact same system on system 76 and dell, and came out about $300 cheaper. And since you're going to throw linux on it anyways, it doesn't really matter what kinds of adware crap is put on it, does it?
- infoexchange, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2I have a storage cabinet that is "virtualized by vmware" and a co-worker's cart is "powered by Redhat".
- richardiscool, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1What the ***** kind of TV channels do you watch.
*TV program*
*Program Ident*
*Silent Channel Ident*
*Adverts*
Is how it usually goes. - sfeldy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I ordered some like 5-6 months ago and their local HQ for the stickers was in the next city over, and I still haven't gotten them. I know they're free and all, but it still sucks.
- weizbox, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Puppies and stickers and glitter and myspace.com!
- SVPirate, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Really - I was gonna stick one on my old G4 :)
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1ubuntu fanboys will jump all over this, not Linux users.
- jackyyll, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1USA is different,
"TV PROGRAM"
"2 Min Commercial"
"TV PROGRAM"
"2 Min Commercial"
etc.. - thenome, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I want one too!
- jughead, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Sharing with others is part of the Ubuntu philosophy.
- ronintetsuro, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I'd never heard of System76 until now.
$399 for a more than decent internet system sounds damn good to me. - dsn0wman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I am pretty sure this is about the 5th time I have dugg the free powered by Ubuntu sticker thing.
- ShiverMeBoner, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1This is hosted on Automattic, which is the wordpress equivalent to Blogger. Of course it hasn't gone down.
- TomFrost, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1You say "we" as though you're speaking for more than you. Look up at the number of diggs this article has. The fact that it got to the front page at *all* is testament to it being here, and that there's a worthwhile crowd of people who care about it. Maybe next time instead of clicking on the story you've had "enough" of and leaving a comment just to tell us all how you, the one person out of thousands who use this site, are personally unaffected, you could just, you know, NOT click it and skip by. Hell, there's even a way to filter them. But I guess whining to all the people who WANT to read this story is more effective, eh?
- mannaran, on 10/10/2007, -4/+4This is just to create brand. Paste the stickers if you are interested. I feel its better than Intel Inside(Idiot outside)..!!
- sigmaman2, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Yes, it's a dupe, but then again, I forgot to send in for it the other times too. Thanks for bringing it back up!
- SVPirate, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1I find your lack of faith disturbing...
- thenome, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1My Mac looks fine without any stickers!
- pHreaksYcle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0saw this on ubuntu1501.blogspot.com loooong time ago...spam your blog on time not with a year old story
