It's only a matter of time until we can install Linux on a dead badger. Oh yes...

Well, protein based processors are still a ways away from what I've heard, but yes, it is only a matter of time. The question is, why would we want to?

Can't wait to see the girls' reaction in Biology class next year! No, TC, not the country girls, the city ones. You and I would probably put embedded Linux on the frog, but an awful lot of girls would be green by the time we finished cutting the stomach.
