One day in mid-November (That month before December) My brother and I were walking in a town, When I spied a little store-front With a lot of signs, to be blunt, Obsessed with showing Microsoft's renown. So I stepped across the threshold, For to make an inquiry bold: "May a customer a Linux system choose?" Then the owner answered clearly, With an affirmation: "Here, see? We give our newbies Linux Mint to use!" |

A mid-autumn nights dream, perhaps. :) |

@skelband, I sympathize with your skepticism, but I don't give away my wanderings. There's too much associated with this nym. I'll simply say that a tiny Midwestern town has a single-proprietor PC shop, and when I asked the owner if he sold Linux systems, he made a point of telling me that his basic intro system was Linux Mint. Linux in general, and Linux Mint in particular, is reaching Heartland, USA. |
