UNDER THE BRIM CONTEST 27 RESULTS: THE INK BLOT TEST
In UTB Contest 27, we asked you to take a look at this imageand tell us what you saw after we planted the subject "A world withoutMicrosoft" in your mind. While in a contest like this everyone's awinner, the following three entries stood out.
Honorable mention #1 goes to Joe in Hawaii who had this vision:
"I see a world where all sides are equal. The two halves harmoniouslycompliment each other. There are small beginnings that grow to largerand larger entities that gracefully join with all parties, butthroughout there is symmetry, openness, and peace. It's a black andwhite world with no deceit."
Yeah, Joe, we saw that, too. Getting a bit too much sun over there inHawaii, are you?
Honorable mention #2 goes to Scott in Australia, who gets the award foraimless mental wandering. He submitted this entry. What it has to dowith the subject is anybody's guess.
"I see two Australian Unicorns drinking stubbies (small bottles of beer)and having a yarn ... of course they may actually be boxing but at timesthat is hard to distinguish in the bars that I have been to aswell!!!!!!"
And this month's winning entry, from Carl L., whose poeticinterpretation shook the very foundations of our world (or somethinglike that):
"Unhinged shackles - fetters free
Chains asunder - room to breathe
Shadows vanquished - high noon bright
N'er again the MS night!"
Thanks to everyone who participated, and congratulations, Carl!

<h2><a name="feature5">UNDER THE BRIM CONTEST 27 RESULTS: THE INK BLOT TEST</a></h2>
<p>In UTB Contest 27, we asked you to take a look
<a href="http://redhat.rgc2.com/servlet/cc4?koEDCU*npHggpJhiiHQSHohhEpm*a*WWA">at this image</a>
and tell us what you saw after we planted the subject "A world without
Microsoft" in your mind. While in a contest like this everyone's a
winner, the following three entries stood out.
<br /=><br /=>
Honorable mention #1 goes to Joe in Hawaii who had this vision:
<br /=><br /=>
"I see a world where all sides are equal. The two halves harmoniously
compliment each other. There are small beginnings that grow to larger
and larger entities that gracefully join with all parties, but
throughout there is symmetry, openness, and peace. It's a black and
white world with no deceit."
<br /=><br /=>
Yeah, Joe, we saw that, too. Getting a bit too much sun over there in
Hawaii, are you?
<br /=><br /=>
Honorable mention #2 goes to Scott in Australia, who gets the award for
aimless mental wandering. He submitted this entry. What it has to do
with the subject is anybody's guess.
<br /=><br /=>
"I see two Australian Unicorns drinking stubbies (small bottles of beer)
and having a yarn ... of course they may actually be boxing but at times
that is hard to distinguish in the bars that I have been to as
well!!!!!!"
<br /=><br /=>
And this month's winning entry, from Carl L., whose poetic
interpretation shook the very foundations of our world (or something
like that):
<br /=><br /=>
"Unhinged shackles - fetters free<br /=>
Chains asunder - room to breathe<br /=>
Shadows vanquished - high noon bright<br /=>
N'er again the MS night!"
<br /=><br /=>
Thanks to everyone who participated, and congratulations, Carl!

stories of your own Red Hat Linux "saves". Send us your story, 100

savings superlatives wins a brand spanking new copy of Red Hat
Linux 7.2.
<br /=><br /=>
1. Most money saved using Red Hat Linux<br /=>
2. Most time saved using Red Hat Linux<br /=>

<br /=>
