Air Apparent
Chapter: Random
A Twitter debate I had last Sunday spurred the idea behind today’s comic. Why can’t people be satisfied using what they use, instead of burning wasteful cycles trying to tell everyone else their choice is “wrong”? You never see this type of argument take place over things like toothpaste, radial tires, or cheese.
And yet, the OS “conversions” continue, and probably will for as long as we have choices. Thoughts?
Oh, and it’s pure coincidence that today’s comic happens to share the same date as Ubuntu 11.04‘s launch.

P.S. If you like today’s comic please Stumble It, add it to Reddit, or retweet it. (The handy buttons up above work.) Bonus points if you send today’s toon to a computer snob. ;)

April 28, 2011 at 3:24 pmIt comes down to the old Ford or Chevy arguement I used to see guys get into that would nearly come to blows. At last count I think in my 25 years as a pro computer guy I’m up to around different OSes. That does not count the multiple flavors of Linux I have used. Computers are computers really. I love them all. ;)
