Teen Sex and the Linux Desktop

by Volker Weber

Matthew Szulik, Red Hat CEO, said recently:

The [Linux desktop] has become a lot like teenage sex. A lot of people are talking about it but not many people are doing it."

Nat Friedman, VP of Linux desktop engineering at Novell, has some interesting data:

These graphs report that by age 19, 69% of American males and 77% of American females have had sexual intercourse. In fact, by age 17, about half of all teenagers have taken a ride on the wild elmo.

So, I don't know if Matthew has teenaged children or not, but if he does, I hope he's paying more attention to his Linux teams!

öhm. ja.
Ich hab mich schon gewundert, weshalb so wenig von/mit Linux+Sex gesprochen/geworben wird, dachte es liegt daran, dass Lustmolche bei "LinuXXX" sowieso an nichts anderes denken...
