Interesting, I always saw Linux as more of the local kebab van type of
food, anyone can own one, you just need to buy the hardware... ;)

I can't wait for the first GPL'd burger, I could take it, add a few
ingredients and call it the McMatt :D

On the upside, if this "market leader" is seen to implement Linux, maybe
we could see a Super-Size portion of the market swapping from Windows to
Linux.

hmmm, maybe McDonalds aren't so bad after all... (insert favourite
anti-capitalist rant here)
