At the retirement home a nurse sees an old man, at least 95, maybe even 100 years old. He is busy reading a Linux book! So she asks, "Why are you reading a Linux book?" He replies, "Well, I don't have much time left in this world and I'm sure that the computers in Heaven are running Linux. So I just want to be ready."
"But happens if you wind up in, you know, that other place?"
"No problem. I have a Vista book too!"
