- ...well, not too badly. In this week's ed of Computer Shopper magazine,
- in the "UNIX notes" section (page 88? I think) there's a blurb about
- Linux, which is great. What isn't so great is that they reported that
- it's for "80x86 machines" -- which is untrue, it's only for 386 and up,
- and that questions or information about Linux can be directed to the
- Internet newsgroup "comp.sys.linux".
-
- "sys" is for HARDWARE. "os" is for OPERATING SYSTEMS!
-
- Sigh.
