[20060227] PCjacking
From the PCjacking website (and found via symlink): ``PCjacking is sticking Linux Live CDs in computers located in popular department stores, to let the customers know that something other than Windows exists (...). If you think it's an useful thing to do, try it yourself ! PCjacking is totally safe for the hijacked PC, and leaves it completely unaltered.''

I'm tempted to say that this IS a nice idea (and guerillia marketing at its best :-). Esp. after I ran by a retail store the other day that had a machine showing some KDE desktop in the window (made me go "wtf?!"). Now, how about grabbing some NetBSD Live CDs and visiting your nearby retail store tomorrow? :)
