ZDNet examines the "typical" Linux hacker. "According to a new survey, open-source software developers are mostly men in their twenties, and they vastly favor the Debian operating system distribution.

We do our best :)

ZDNet/News.com posts the same story repeatedly, often half a dozen times or more, with different URLs and different titles. We really try to filter them all out, but it's hard sometimes. Apologies for the dup here.

Duplicates.
