"As Microsoft chairman Bill Gates rolled out the next version of
Windows, Linux companies were throwing him upper cuts and left
hooks." 

"Linux backers staged a series of boxing matches outside Thursday's
Windows 2000 launch at Moscone Center, pitting the penguin
against chairman Gates."

The companies beat us to it!  Gar!

I saw the plane with the "INTRALINUX" banner, while I was out at Central
Computer getting a part, but I didn't realize why it was there.  The
crowds around Moscone Center were really minor at mid-day, although for
the past few days I've seen people with "Windows 2000 Setup and Teardown"
stickers in restaurants and on the street in South of Market.
