Awesome show.
Ill be accepting the award for the Bangbrothers at the next Greppies.
But...
Seriously Fab???
America doesnt like Canada? LOL Generalize much?
There are some bad forces at work in the US government but no worse than forces at work in many other Governments including Germany.
The Important thing is to fight against the ideal with action and education.
If you are going to criticize the FSF for being "too negative" and then make sweeping generalizations like that its hard to take you seriously.
Especially with that hat.

If the key is super, why is there a Windows logo on it?

The Microsoft-Yahoo deal hasn't actually been finalized. They came out and announced it but they never actually settled all the terms. At the moment Yahoo still powers it's own search. That is liable to change at any time. But who knows? It is possible that by the time 10.10 comes out google may feel like getting the ubuntu default back. I don't really care. I use Fedora.
