Why is he being dugg down. I know most of us would like to believe that linux is now going to take over and that linux is very user friendly but the simple fact of the matter is that it is not yet at a common-user friendly stage. Maybe once the GUI evolves it will beet M$ but as of right now, especially since windows is free and works easily with other pirated programs, windows will continue to reign king in countries that could get away with piracy.

You Diggiots don't get it, do you? Putin's (read, the KGB's) goal is not to promote Linux, it is to "reduce Russian dependence on foreign software". The new "Russian OS", coupled with a new "Russian network" that just happens to be non-IP, are meant to separate Russian engineers from the rest of the world. In essence, the KGB is building a new Berlin Wall on the Internet.

I liked that too. I don't know if you've read Charles Stross's Accelerando (downloadable for free from <a class="user" href="http://www.accelerando.org/">http://www.accelerando.org/</a> if you haven't read it and it's a truly staggering read) but in that Russia was the only country where anyone actually paid for software in Chapter 1- I'm quite pleased to see that this part of the book hasn't come true.

What, you mean, ASP Linux, as the distro by the guys who made the ASPseek search engine?I haven't tried the distro, but used the search engine during my college years. Having read most of the code i can tell you these guys can program. Aspseek isn't easily understandable, but it's by far the best open source engine performance-wise, even 5 years after they stopped developing it.
