Btw, the reason that linux has such a small market share has got to
be due to the fact that Hippos aren't very stealthy. Despite the
ninja outfits, I suspect that Eric will have plenty of time to plan
his escape since he'll notice the hippos coming well in advance of
their arrival.
I think Microsoft uses wolverines for their retrieval process.
