їх сьогодні знайшов ув дивному дистрибутиві BOGUS Linux доби

Subject: Linux pronounciation HOWTO

Message-ID: <2mc7va$6k4@hydra.Helsinki.FI>
Keywords: Linux, SillySounds, pronounciation, names, Our Master's Voice
As the "How do you pronounce Linux?" thread comes up every once in a
while, I have now uploaded the definitive answer to ftp.funet.fi and
ftp.cs.helsinki.fi. For anybody with the ability to play 8kHz 8-bit
audio files, you now have the possibility to listen to the piping voice
of God (hint: "cat swedish.au > /dev/audio").
The files can be found in:
ftp.funet.fi:
pub/OS/Linux/PEOPLE/Linus/SillySounds
ftp.cs.helsinki.fi:
pub/Software/Linux/Kernel/SillySounds
as "swedish.au" and "english.au" for the Swedish and English versions
respectively (surprise, surprise). They both say something like "Hello,
this is Linus Torvalds, and I pronounce Linux as Linux". Impressive
stuff, and it only gets better by being played continuously, preferably
on several machines at the same time, in both languages. MAX VOLUME!
