I have a teenage son who enjoys running GNU/Linux as his primary OS on all computers. He's 'converted' a few of his friends too...

Anyway, we sometimes go hang out among the book stacks at the local Barnes and Noble and joke about browsing the 'Extremist' GNU/Linux magazines.

I wouldn't bet on it (in fact, if I was gonna bet, I'd bet the other way).

I saw July 4 but didn't read on to see that the year was wrong.

Apologies all 'round.
