Well *I* thought it was funny :-)


    You are in the Windows Developers' Chamber, a hive of
    activity.  Through a chink in the rock, you can hear the
    faint, unintelligible sounds of people talking about Linux.
    A passage leads north.

    You are in a long featureless passage.  There are exits to the
    west and south.

    You are in the Linux Developers' Chamber, a hive of familiar
    but incomprehensible activity.  Through a chink in the rock,
    you can hear the faint sounds of people talking about Windows
    -- the sounds of home.


Or, more to the point:

    A low, narrow, twisting passage, strewn with boulders, exits
    to the east.  Through it, you can hear the faint,
    unintelligible sounds of people talking about Linux.

    The way is barred.

    > install linux

    You have a Linux box.

    You are a clueless n00b.

    You are still mystified.

    > buy "Linux for Idiots"

    You are holding a copy of "Linux for Idiots".

    > read book

    You are somewhat less clueless.

    > write code

    You are bloody but unbowed.  Your Linux code finally works.

    Well that was a whole other experience, wasn't it?  You now
    have an installable Debian archive.  As a side effect, you
    know where in other .deb's to find the packager's contact
    info.

    > package code for redhat

    Well that was a whole other experience, wasn't it?  You now
    have an installable RPM.  As a side effect, you know where in
    other RPMs to find the packager's contact info.

    > blink

    You realize that you are now at the east end of the passage.

    You are in the Linux Developers' Chamber, a hive of familiar
    activity.  The discussions surrounding you make perfect
    sense.
    
    A wide, straight, well-lit corridor exits to the west.  At
    the other end, you can see the Windows Developers' Chamber,
    and hear, perfectly clearly, all of your old friends talking.
