By Rogerjak

I don't get it... explain it to me please :P

By cluster-

I want a hand held linux console pliiiiiizz!?

By nMeden

I * DON'T * GET * IT

By charlieMX

Get it, I do not......

By Chibby

If get it you do not, a nerd you are not

By Hugomanen

Windows behaves and functions like a bitch, thus us windows users have no use for the hand held console ^^

By pxl

I've got Ubuntu on the PC, CFW on the PSP and Windows on my mobile phone.


And still, I don't get it.

By Frasse

I do feel glad I don't got it. Anyway, tnx Hugomanen for the explanation.

Another fun thing is that it appaerently exist almost 4000 Linux jokes that doesn't really work

By PhoeniXYZ

That was, indeed, funny. Though I needed a moment...

By Stijn

For the people who don't get it:
Linux has this 'console' or 'terminal' window, in which you can type commands (a text interface as you wish).
The joke is that they use 'console' as a gaming device, while the nerd is talking about the linux text-based command line interface.

There you go, you have been educated.

By nzbright

Damn my knowledge of linux...

By Plater

Wouldn't "txt"ing on a phone without a full keyboard be a "handheld console" since the effect is roughly the same.

By Tak

No Stijn, not real. The joke is about er... well, lets say winusers and/or guys w/ gf's wont get it.

By pxl

And to think I actually execute firefox from terminal...

By Doc

Certified Nerd. Props Tak and many golf claps to Stijn for the edumacation of anyone without a CCNA or copy of win3.11 sitting around collecting dust.

I think you're being ripped off!

By andersy

Geek tests are fun. I too feel nerdy.

By mr.madsen

Thanks for the heads up Caroline, I've emailed them. :)

By Z.V

I actually have a handheld Linux console (A Hacked Jornada 720)
...

By Ergonomic

so...being ripped off by the big purple couch, why couldnt it have been something badass like...a japanese toy company

By Melladh

I got it but more for being a programmer (for the term console output) than by linux usage... And I do realize where the term comes from, but the term programming-wise is used in windows as well ;) I guess I'm showing a lack of nerdiness here, but I can't remember running a linux dist that referred to the terminal as "console".
Still. Sweet.

By Stijn

@Melladh: there's a alternative terminal application, called 'Konsole' in ubuntu distro's.
=)

@Doc: I know it's nerdy, but i can't really help it. I study Computer Science.

By Stryker

@ pxl: Pfft firefox from the terminal? Links all the way!
