Google has confirmed it is working on a desktop linux project called Goobuntu, but declined to supply further details, including what the project is for.

and I know a fair few English (we are all british after all!) people (my wife for one) who dislike Monty Python too.
so its not British humour, just surreal.

and another thing - one of the Pythons is American - Terry Gilliam.

Hi,

As far as "Goobuntu" goes, it has now been denied by Google...

Anyway, do you really want to see google (or some big investor) buying amiga? Let's start a "self fulfilling prophecy". Just spreading the word google will buy amiga rights and develop a new Amiga OS to run on x86 machines will get google (or any other competitor) interested in the thing and the prophecy will fulfill itself.

It worked with Christ didn't it!? ^^
PS- please don't start any mass riots against me or Portugal, I'm only stating the obvious!
