Always considered myself a Debian or Redhat guy, but oh well. Praise Bob!

The text is amazingly accurate, though. Great quiz.

here is what I got when I picked the off the wall answers to all the questions.



I wonder if they have one for microsoft Bob (That probably wouldn't be considered an OS I guess)

A few others I was able to get from URL hacking:











Wasn't able to find any others I was expecting, like Solaris or BeOS.

I'm just thankfull it didn't give me MacOS. Bitt would have loved it.



I would have loved to get Win2K, especially since I have honestly not heard of this one

I think Bitt will be most sore that Solaris seems to not be represented in this poll. Unless the filename is something I wasn't able to guess.

Err... why didn't you just click the "Show all the possible results" link?

(I refuse to say what I was, on the basis that my true answer was not given as an option for nearly half the questions.)

That would have been far too easy. (I didn't see it.)

Incidentally... TRSDOS is an option, but MSDOS isn't? Blasphemy!

Damn skippy!

I can't believe that they included one commercial Unix (HPUX) but not others. I could have come up with some great stuff for AIX, at least:
You claim to have the same set of ideals as those around you, but somehow they're presented in ways that make those familiar with them confused.

Is it me or does it seem humorous that the reverend is represented by a picture of a devil?

Thankfully, nobody has gotten WinME. Or at least nobody has admitted to it

Remember, thats a daemon, and not a demon.

I tend to explain this to newcomers to the Unix world quite a bit at work. "No, it's not an Apache Demon, it's a Daemon...". It's almost as bad as how to properly say Linux.

That seems to be pointed directly at me, given my earlier comment. I assure you, I was not WinME.
