A 37-year-old Colorado Springs man was cited for discharging a weapon within city limits after
shooting his Dell computer 8 times [nbcnews.com] with a 9mm handgun. The police report said that he "was fed up with fighting his computer for the last several months" and shot it in a back alley behind his home. What was not mentioned is exactly why he was so "fed up" with his computer. Could this senseless and violent tragedy have been avoided if his PC were running Linux instead?
