New bug-infested distro eases transition from Windows to Linux

Humorix (http://humorix.org/ ) reports about an innovative new Linux distribution called "Notdows", 
by Pee-aitch-bee Enterprises:

A key component of Notdows is the killrandom daemon process, which randomly kills running 
processes, faithfully simulating the Windows experience. Over time, however, killrandom will 
operate less frequently, allowing the user to smoothly transition to a stable operating system.

"Ordinary distros built by geeks are designed to be as stable as possible," said a Pee-aitch-bee 
developer/manager. "This does not work well for some naive ex-Windows users, who become disoriented 
and lost in such a foreign environment. While recent versions of Windows are more stable than 
predecessors, the difference between Windows and Linux can still be quite jarring. We hope to ween 
these users away from Windows' flakiness without causing unnecessary emotional duress."
