Скорее юмор, чем Линукс :)
If Linux Distributions Were Footballers..

This is just a bit of fun, blending my two great loves, Linux and football.
I make no apology for the English Premiership-centric choices.
Indeed, I'd welcome any other suggestions from around the globe...
Debian = Petr Cech, Chelsea
Anyone who knows anything about football knows that the great teams are built on the solid foundation of a great goalkeeper. Anyone who knows anything about Linux knows that many distributions are built on a great distribution. Still, prone to the occasional headache and likely to argue with its defenders.
Sabayon = Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United
Some dazzling footwork from the OS in the bright orange/blue/white/gold/red/yellow boots, though sometimes opts for a ligament-twisting, multiple step-over, reverse pass when a simple through-ball would suffice. Also prone to falling over in the box for no apparent reason.
Slackware = John Terry, Chelsea
Unyielding, old-fashioned defender, solid as a rock and liable to boot the ball (and opponents) into the stand rather than concede a yard.
Gentoo = Dimitar Berbatov, Manchester United
Complicated, moody but with the right man-management, prone to moments of exquisite brilliance. Unlikely to reach its potential because of inner turmoil and inability to focus on the glittering prize.
Mandriva = Karim Benzema, Lyon
Sophisticated, stylish, Gallic flair coupled with wonderful athleticism. After a couple of quiet years consolidating its reputation, is on the verge of mega-stardom and likely to attract a lot of attention throughout Europe.
Ubuntu = Robinho, Manchester City
Has en eye on world domination, thanks to huge influx of money from billionaire backer, but is actually not quite as good as it thinks it is. Large, loyal following who display a tendency to become snippy when criticised.
OpenSUSE = Michael Ballack, Chelsea
Germanic efficiency produces a system that seldom fails but, equally, seldom entertains in the manner for which, say, Sabayon, is renowned.
Knoppix = Michael Essien, Chelsea
The incredibly gifted, wonderfully useful utility player of the team, capable of fulfilling every role from defender, to workhorse midfielder or goalscorer. The type of OS that every manager loves to have on his bench, to call on in times of emergency.
Damn Small Linux = Joe Cole, Chelsea
The pocket-rocket midfielder. Small and agile, but well-equipped, with more tricks in its bag than you'd expect given its diminutive size. Often pops up in the penalty box to steal the glory from the big boys.
Linux Mint = Steven Gerrard, Liverpool
The real deal – polished performer with the drive and determination to be a winner. Not afraid to be creative and get forward when required but equally at home keeping things safe and secure at the back. The complete player.
Pardus = Andrei Arshavin, Zenit St Petersburg
One of those sneaky performers: You don't realise how good they are until 20 minutes are on the clock and you're already 3-0 down, with your star player looking ineffective and your previously-solid defence now leaking like a sieve.
