Uhm... Walmart are already selling Lindows PCs for $199 I believe. (http://www.lindows.com/). And there's a new offering which also includes a TFT flat screen in the bundle too. M$ are not happy.

Oh and picture the scene:

Bill Gates on his knees (that's a good one to start with).

HMQE2 holding a bloody great sword within inches of his throat (this is getting better and better)...

If we all knew the *exact* time of the dubbing, we could all jump up and down, creating a seismic pulse, and *snik!* whoops... One has made a mess on one's carpet...

"blurdy"--a typical instance where proper English takes its dreams for reality, since the sword is supposed to remain blurdy clean of blurd stains.

The Modern (aka Anglo-American) variation (as in "f-wording great sword") might miss the point, too: I don't see what Cue-E-square could make of Billy-boy, or vice-versa.

German could miss the mark too: "Schei*e groß(e?) Schwert" somehow doesn't fit the protocol.

Again, our own good ole' Gallic seems the most appropriate: "une putain de grande épée"
(or vice-versa) :D

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.
