This was just too funny to pass up... Apparently,
Network Computing magazine did a story about linux
in the enterprise:

Someone wrote them back with this reply
http://www.networkcomputing.com/1302/1302fn.html
"Linux is not ready for the Enterprise. There is not a single
voice-controlled app for any of the mission-critical functions of the
Enterprise. Conspicuously absent are warp core control, phaser bank
activation, interstellar navigation, transporter operation and the
all-important self-destruct sequence. Until these and thousands of other
important apps are written and deployed, Linux will just be a toy in the
Enterprise."
What can you say to that? :-) Perhaps for gnome 5.0?!?

Those who are willing to sacrifice essential liberties for a little
order, will lose both and deserve neither. -- Benjamin Franklin
History teaches that grave threats to liberty often come in times
of urgency, when constitutional rights seem too extravagant to
endure. -- Justice Thurgood Marshall, 1989
