0 - the probability it will ever be a good desktop platform

0.05 - the estimated userbase as a percent of all PC users

1 - the number of mouse clicks required to hard freeze the slop

2 - the upgrade which made the first upgrade a bigger mess

10 - the seconds of uptime before freeze and hard boot

27 - the number of minutes required to login and load a webpage

90 - the percent of time the PalmZ22 device locks up on the victim

Basement?

That sounds more like you Linux dweebs,

Like here for example:

http://groups.google.com/group/gnu.misc.discuss/msg/58af0a2ffdd67d73?hl=en

" We meet in the basement. Enter the library and head to the back. If the
door is closed when you arrive you can ask the manager of the library
for
the keys to the room if you're comfortable opening up the basement, or
you can wait for some of the others to arrive. "

Hahah!

Even the library doesn't want these Linux vermin scaring the regular
patrons, staring at the females and stinking up the place.

When they arrested Hans Reiser they found him hiding in his mothers
basement. There's something about basements that make them a huge
attraction for Linux users.
