Holy shit, new boot splash!

22 March 2009 in Uncategorized

You know what the biggest Ubuntard news is this week?  Apparently, there’s a new boot splash theme to be included in Jaunty Jackalope.  If you’re underwhelmed by this news, apparently you’re in the minority.  This particular article gained more than 500 diggs and almost 200 comments… for some terribly watermarked screenshots (that obscure the portion of the screen that’s actually interesting) and a 20 second video of a machine booting.

Yes!  An action shot of a… progress bar!  I think I just jizzed in my pants.  Now that’s a money shot.

Ubuntards pitch a tent over the slightest changes.  Jesus christ.  I think we need an RSS feed straight from Mark Shuttleworths’ toilet.  I want to know the consistency, color, and texture every time he drops a deuce.

Possibly my favorite part of Softpedia’s excuse for an article is the tacky watermark right over the Ubuntu logo in screenshots of the new splash:

Brillant.
