Musical Geek Friday #12: Every OS Sucks

,----[ Quote ]
| But then Xerox made a prototype,
| Steve Jobs came on the scene,
| read “Of Mice and Menus,” Windows, Icons
| a trash, and a bitmap screen.
| 
| Well Stevie said to Xerox,
| “Boys, turn your heads and cough.”
| And when no-one was looking,
| he ripped their interfaces off.
| 
| Stole every feature that he had seen,
| put it in a cute box with a tiny little screen,
| Mac OS 1 ran that machine,
| only cost five thousand bucks.
| 
| But it was slow, it was buggy,
| so they wrote it again,
| And now they’re up to OS 10,
| they’ll charge you for the Beta, then charge you again,
| but the Mac OS still sucks.
| 
| Every OS wastes your time,
| from the desktop to the lap,
| Everything since Apple Dos,
| Just a bunch of crap.

Outgoing Fedora Project Leader Max Spevack talks to Linux.com (video)

| We caught up with Max at FUDCon. He told us how much he has enjoyed being the 
| Fedora project leader for the past two years, and why this is a good time to 
| hand the reins to someone else. Max will still be working for Red Hat, and 
| even though he will no longer be head Fedora honcho, he'll still be involved 
| with the project. But that's enough from us. Let Max tell it in his own 
| words.

Interview with Fedora's Max Spevack 

,----[ Quote ]
| There's a few things that I see happening in the next nine or 12 months. All 
| of the change that we have put in the last six months into the Fedora is 
| going to need a little time to let the dust settle on it. As people start to 
| use some of these tools more frequently, there's going to be complaints, and 
| we're going to make them better.    
|
| I think there is a lot of potential in the live CD arena. One of the things 
| we have got working for Fedora 7 is the live USB key, where you can put the 
| whole distro on a USB key and boot it up.

An interview with Fedora leader Max Spevack

,----[ Quote ]
| One of the things that we want to do with Fedora 8 is get the release 
| cycle back on a predictable track. A 6 month cycle, beginning on June 1st, 
| puts the release date smack in the middle of Christmas. Furthermore, the 
| Thanksgiving holiday in the United States is something that needs to be 
| planned around. In short, we were worried that a 6 month cycle for Fedora 
| 8 would very quickly slip out to 7 or 8 months simply due to the holidays 
| that come at the end of the year.      
| 
| So we're looking to shorten the cycle up, with a Fedora 8 GA tentatively 
| scheduled for October 31st.
