Hey, Destination Linux crew,

I love the show, but one thing greatly troubles me…

Ryan “CLAIMS” his car ‘runs linux’, but I am thinking he means that his car ‘boots’ linux. I refuse to believe these outrageous claims until I see a logo of some sort that Ryan has produced ACTUALLY USING this ‘linux’ on his car. That’s right. I’m calling ‘bogus’ on this, until Ryan offers proof-positive that his car RUNS linux by producing something with inkscape or gimp USING HIS CAR.

I admit, I was skeptical when he professes his love for linux, but uses an iPhone to make phone calls. (Android, as google-fied as it may be, is certainly closer to the linux family than iOS)

Seriously, though. Thank you for the show each week! I don’t miss an episode, and, like Ryan, I also work telecom… It’s a welcome relief to hear the friendly linux-centric banter while I go about my I&R (install and repair) business day.

PS: I’m not sure if Michael knew this, but KDE is SO customizable, I’ve even found an option that you can ‘like it’ or ‘not like it’ in the settings!!!

Thanks,

-Andy
