Yeah, it's scary.  Someone on IRC showed me their 'lsmod' output... the HSP

(granted the kernel image is compressed, and actually takes more space in
RAM... but still, that's stupid :-)

built with some of your parts, and what do you think about funding us? Or
we'll give it to you. We just want to do it. Pay our salary, we'll come work
for you.' And they said, 'No.' So then we went to Hewlett-Packard, and they
said, 'Hey, we don't need you. You haven't got through college yet.'" --
