Tres cute! But aren't you hitting the law of diminishing returns yet? Seems to
me that everyone with the intelligence to see the need for a free open-source
operating system, complete with source code and compiler, has already got a
Linux box, while everyone who doesn't see the need is working for or selling
to the DC government and could not be pursuaded to give up their Windows3.1 or
NT machines if you stuck a gun to their head and buried them in gold pieces.
They're honest politicians, the kind that _stay_ bought.

for either having no modern computers, or choosing a monopolist's overpriced
and underpowered bug-riddled-piece-of-filth operating system to waste the
taxpayers money, instead of saving enough on software to literally put a
laptop with a free OS into the hands of every legitimate District resident.)
