QWERTYUIOP, WA /DenounceNewswire/ -- June 21, 1998 -- Within hours of
IBM's announcement of its $5.7 billion acquisition of the Apache web
server, the most popular server for World Wide Web sites, Microsoft
today announced that it is acquiring Linux, the free operating system
originally developed by Linus Torvalds and a motley group of worldwide
programmers, for $18 billion.

Damn funny site, all around. ;-)
