Well, I don't think it's meaningless, actually, it's quite serious and
important. M$ windows has dominated the OS market for long, and they
still do. The worst thing is, they keep their little secret in a black
box.
To kids in school, they have to know a world beyond M$ empire. It's an
open society that people can learn, share, and talk freely.
To CS students in college, they have to learn Operating System. Linux
(or say, UNIX-family) as an open box is a great material.
