UNIX Airways

Everyone brings one piece of the plane along when
they come to the airport. They all go out on the runway
and put the plane together piece by piece, arguing non-stop
about what kind of plane they are supposed to be building.

Linux Air

Disgruntled employees of all the other OS airlines decide to start
their own airline. They build the planes, ticket counters, and pave the
runways themselves. They charge a small fee to cover the cost of
printing the ticket, but you can also download and print the ticket
yourself.

When you board the plane, you are given a seat, four bolts, a wrench
and a copy of the seat-HOWTO.html. Once settled, the fully adjustable
seat is very comfortable, the plane leaves and arrives on time without a
single problem, the in-flight meal is wonderful. You try to tell
customers of the other airlines about the great trip, but all they can
say is, "You had to do what with the seat?"

I agree with you about Linux. To my mind, Linux users are like the Celtic
warriors hired by the medieval English kings: Fierce as hell, loyal to a
fault, single-minded in their goals.

You just wouldn't want them to actually, you know, RUN things.
