Tux recently had his first payment made for the usage of linux software on Windows machines..
This incident concerns the use of putty..
here is the documentation:
I'm pleased to announce Tux was very pleased and plans to impose more fines on ppl for the use of his software.. he has heard ITS too have putty on their machines and so plans to give them a visit soon

Why has no-one commented?? and also all none-linux users of putty should be ready to start paying their "fines" as well
Tux has informed me that the best way to avoid payment is to install Linux

Probably because PuTTY has got absolutely nothing to do with linux

but ssh does!! and one of the protocols used by putty is SSH!!
SSH came from the world of linux.. therefore Tux demands compensation
or that u start using linux

I used to have SuSe. Linux is ok but I don't think I'd use it enough...
