    Today I’ve received a forward email. I don’t know the source of this thing - the original was in Italian. They sent me this, because I'm facing some trouble with Linux lately. It took me some time to translate it, and probably it needs a grammar review - I did this because want to forward it to my friends that are not Italian native language so... I’ll post it here too hoping is not a already seen thing... have fun John A. Johnson :cool: [edit] Dear diary, day 1 ----------------- Today I’ve decided to install Linux. You can’t be a real hacker if you don’t use Linux, and I want to be a real hacker. Especially to strike on girls. Asking around to have some help, I’ve discovered that John uses Linux; John has thick glasses, he is overweight, doesn’t shower much, doesn’t shave and he doesn’t know any girl. In my mind there was someone more cool, with dark glasses even indoors and a black leather jacket. Probably he disguised to not be shown too much. A double life! What an emotion to be a hacker! He suggested me to use DEBIAN saying that it’s the "Linux destruction" for real cool ones. I’m a real cool one! I use PC since I was a small boy; always Macintosh, but when one knows a computer system, than he can say he knows all of them! Consider only the hacker of "Independence Day", he was inside the system of an alien star ship: COOL! I only want to understand why he calls it "Linux destruction". I have to ask him... it’s a COOL name! Dear diary, day 2 ----------------- John explained me that the DEBIAN is a DIS-TRI-BU-TION of GNU/Linux. Not a destruction. He told me that it’s very important that I say "GNU/Linux" because if you say only Linux, Microsoft (that I have to write Micro$oft or Microsuck, didn’t understand why) will get control of the full planet, will start the Apocalypse, will shutdown the sun, make the children cry and will prevent the diffusion of new games under GNU/Linux (in this order of importance). John told me that GNU means "it’s not UNIX", but Linux is Unix and he told me that it’s from all these small contradictions that you can understand who’s a real hacker. All the others are losers and they deserve that a worm virus automatically send emails to your grandmother with porno pictures that you exchange with the girlfriend. Anyway, I can’t be a loser because my grandma is too old and she doesn’t know how to use a computer; and above all, I never had a girlfriend (even if I wrote some stories about Kaory)... My god! I’m already becoming a real hacker! Dear diar

        Eh, it was funny at first but it's clear this guy is completely tech-unsavvy. It's not nearly that hard to install Linux - er, sorry - GNU/Linux and it doesn't take a lot of brains to go through the setup, plus most modern (and by modern I mean for at least a decade) BIOS can boot to a CD automatically or by pressing a CD (though you sometimes need to change the boot order). Fortunately this guy is giving linux a try, though. He sounds stupid enough that he would be the kind of person that won't install a firewall (or even enable the IPC in Windows XP and newer) and will probably try to read every email he gets in Outlook, thus spreading worms and trojans across the 'net.
