Cuba turning into Cubuntu?

. Thursday, February 12, 2009

"Cuba launched its own variant of the Linux computer operating system this week in the latest front of the communist island's battle against what it views as U.S. hegemony."

This isn't surprising and I believe Russia is also making a migration from Windows to Linux as well
And, as we all Know... In Soviet Russia, Linux Hacks You.
The russians have named it.... Russian OS. They need more PR/Advertising people.

If you are truly surprised, and are asking... Well, why the hell would they want to do this when Windows is everywhere (including everywhere in Cuba)... An old story you might want to read could share some new light on the subject.

CIA plot led to huge blast in Siberian gas pipeline

Apparently, the russians were looking for some warez, and found it all right...
This warez copy they installed also managed to blow up some gas pipelines and cost the russians a good amount of money. Then the russians laughed about it and made it a point to execute the spy who had set it all up.

So now, the Communix of the world are all transferring over to Linux.
This will be good since like most software and hardware, Nuclear weapons, just like COD World at War, aren't compatible with Linux.
