Come On Baby Run Linspire


 

This is how Open Source companies need to start marketing. Get creative and stuff! Even if you don’t like Linux you should go watch this to at least get a laugh out of it.

Good luck getting the song out of your head though…

    Err, I’m trapped in a box, and it looks like I didn’t download the whole stylesheet!

    I’m kidding, this is looking very sweet. Very unique and easy on the eyes. Although I’m not too fond of dark sites, this one doesn’t irk me, so you did something right somewhere.

    ARRRGHHH! Not all geeks love white text on a black background.

  3. Hmm… Another irrelevant comment on the new design. I gotta say I like it, even though it looks incredibly geeky with light text on a dark background. Wouldn’t have realized if I didn’t check in from my newsreader. Good job guys!

    Thanks peeps. Obviously it isn’t done, but I liked it better than the last one so I had to get it up. This site need a personality to match the people who run it.

    And Nicole I know all geeks done love the white text on dark background and that is why you get the MAIN content with white background black text. This is no good?

  5. Nicole says:

    Okay, perhaps that was irrelevant.

    Maybe it’s just that, overall, the look is very dark now.

  6. Scrivs says:

    Well you know the rest of my sites Nicole, so you can at least give me one dark site! :-P

  7. Nicole says:

    Okay. :) At least there’s some red. I love me some red.

    Well, I did dig a bit and found the lyrics… but the page is (gasp) gone!

    Just sing this to the tune of You-know-who and their song of the (almost) same name)
    Lyrics:
    You know that Click-N-Run is cool
    With click and run, you’re on fire
    Just one-click install for you
    And then the source will take you higher

    Come on baby, run Linspire
    Come on baby, run Linspire
    Time to set MS on fire

    The time to use XP is through
    No time to wallow in bug mire
    The data you will only lose
    And the viruses a funeral pyre

    Come on baby, run Linspire
    Come on baby, run Linspire
    Time to set MS on fire!

    MUSICAL INTERLUDE

    It’s time for Linux now, it’s new
    Those activation codes raise ire
    Money isn’t fun to lose
    So become a savvy software buyer

    Come on baby, run Linspire
    Come on baby, run Linspire
    Time to set MS on fire, yeah!

    MS would have you play the fool
    It’s rumored they can be a liar
    Common sense would say to you
    Monopolies take prices higher

    Come on baby, run Linspire Yea..
    Come on baby, run Linspire
    run Linspire, run Linspire, run Linspire Yea
    run Linspire, run Linspire, run Linspire Ohhh

    Come on baby, run run run, Come on baby run Linspire Yea,
    run Linspire, run Linspire, run Linspire Yea
    run Linspire, run Linspire Yea… fadeaway

    Yeah!
    Not bad for a computer-fixin’ Network Geek, Huh?

    run Linspire, run Linspire, run Linspire Yea
    (can’t get it outta my head…)
