What's GNU? - Neatorama

Attention geeky parents! What better way to introduce your little kids to the wonderful world of computing than with this three-letter learning game What's GNU?

The object of the game is to form three-letter words as quickly as possible (and by playing it, you'll be teaching your kids to read and form words). http://www.thinkfun.com/PRODUCT.ASPX?PageNo=PRODUCT&Catalog=By%20Category&Category=5YOUNG&ProductId=7760

But What is GNU? If you know the answer, you're truly geeky! Don't know what it is? Here's a clue.

Yes it was a computer joke, which by definition is not funny to the general public :)

Either this is just a bad computer joke that I don't think is funny or you're really stretching to somehow relate GNU to this game because the way I see it, A) this game has nothing to do with computers and B) a "gnu" is the animal on the front of the box.

Just get them a RMS poster and let their hippie-esque socialist brainwashing begin.

What parent wouldn't be proud if their child grew up to be an unwashed, barefoot, socialist that goes around the world ranting how money is bad.

If your a true geek parent, your kids need to know about Gary Gnu from "The Great Space Coaster." - "No Gnews Is Good Gnews...Gary Gnu" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAwVIZDAUF0
