Going offtopic for fun and profit. Well, mostly fun.

I dunno, you crazy people. Some lunatic gives you the greatest swiss-cheeser exploit in living memory (at least, until the next one) and what do you do?

Bleh - you start arguing over why you should run Linux or buy a Mac (just check out those comments!) instead of cowering in mortal fear of the Interweb burning. Well, no more. From now on, this is what you do when a Net-neutron bomb goes off:

1) Do not mention Linux. Or Macs. Ever. This is naughty. Assuming you're going to come barging in on poor Mr Windows and his latest box0r rox0r howler, you have to play nice and pretend you actually use Windows. Gloating is not allowed. Don't make me come over to one of your funky coding boards and get all nerdy on your ass. I'm more than prepared to spam you with questions asking if a Win32 Executable can run on Mandrake for the next six years.

2) Pretend you like living in a world where Microsoft Word crashes every five seconds, and when those cool kids who know Ubuntu isn't a tribal dance in Norway laugh at you every other day, try to savour the moment.

3) Recieve a +1 Mod for not singing the Switch to Firefox song.

4) Recieve a +2 Mod for not turning every single damn discussion about a Windows hole into a boring argument about who wins, Linux or Windows. Here's a couple of tire-irons, there's a car-park. Let natural selection take its' course.

5) The Interweb is burning. Happy New Year!
