Linux, not an Operating System

Yep, for this particular case, Linux is actually not an operating system at all. Instead, it’s the name of Christian Nielsen’s baby. The baby was born (or released) last August 24 and is pretty much stable. Questions raised by Linux.com are:

  1. Will Richard Stallman insist that the baby be called GNU/Linux?
  2. Does a baby named Linux go to sleep and wake up without problems?
  3. How often does he outgrow his footwear and require a reboot?

I wish to add the following questions:

  1. Will he be using CUPS when he starts to write?
  2. Would he prefer NFS over Samba when it comes to sharing stuff?
  3. Will desktop will he be using when he starts to go to work? KDE, Gnome, XFCE, or something else?

Oh well, I think the name’s cool. Here’s a photo of the cute baby.

Cool, eh?
