    define hacker

    Hey all, I was assigned a paper for class on the origins of the Linux kernel, more specifically I was to touch on linus torvalds, richard stallman and andew s. tanenbaum's involvment and I think I'm going to get a good grade on this one. From a personal perspective I continued my research well after the paper was saturated with information. holy crap I didn't know I was that stupid. There is so much out there I have yet to set a drop in the bucket with my tinney bit of knowlage. However I do want to share something I found that was VERY helpful for me and can be for you....

    and more specificaly a some what funny search result

    http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/hacker

    Note the definition to H4x0r... LOL

    btw Tron, I was tempted to call Linus... but I decited that 9 pm isn't a good time to bother anyone. Maybe someday I'll find an excuse to do just that.

            That was pretty harsh. But the definition on that site was pretty cool.
