I've spent the better part of the past 2 weeks banging away on 2 LTSP servers for our school district.  I find myself lamenting to those around me, and being an otherwise cranky guy as well.

It's a long-standing joke in the free software world that this will be the year when we see GNU/Linux make its breakthrough on the desktop - just like last year, and the year before that.  What's really funny is that all the key GNU/Linux desktop apps are already being widely deployed, but not in the way that people have long assumed.

Today Jonathan Moore  and I headed over to LinuxWorld after lunch to see what kind of cool hardware and Linux hacks they had on the expo floor.  Only $15 to get in the door so I figure why not.  I'm a bit of a privacy freak.  When you're trading some security for liberty there are situations where it *might* be worth it.

I bought the domain name HeyMicrosoftSueMe.org at the suggestion of Marcel Gagne after posting a blog entry on the topic.  The idea was to ask Linux users to join me in calling Microsoft's bluff.  Let's get the patent infringement claims tried in court and get this over with. Several people talked me out of it.  Fortunately, a lawyer named Christian Einfeldt had the same idea and followed through. Here's a copy of Marcel's entry on the topic from his own blog, with a link to the "Sue me first Microsoft list" in case you want to add your own name.
