Linux 3.11 Officially Named "Linux For Workgroups" 376
An anonymous reader writes "Linus Torvalds decided to change the code name for Linux 3.11 and even submitted an alternate Tux Logo. Heise reports: 'For this release, Linus Torvalds changed the code name from "Unicycling Gorilla" to "Linux for Workgroups" and modified the logo that some systems display when booting: it now depicts a Tux holding a flag with a symbol that is reminiscent of the logo of Windows for Workgroups 3.11, which was released in 1993.'"

I can't wait to see Linux 95. The Linux market will explode when that comes out.

Good to see Linus still has a sense of humor.
I suppose shipping intentionally buggy IPX drivers with it might be taking the joke too far though.

Windows95 was really just a GUI running on top of DOS. Download GNOME and you've got it already!

Compared to Gnome, Windows95 is lightweight and responsive.

Yes. Windows 95 was by far the lightest weight and most responsive of Operating systems. Unfortunatly, every other response was a blue screen...
