I get all happy when I hear that song. It's great.
I would so have it as my ringtone.

I like it, and think it was unfortunatley short lived on the podcast because of the controversy - probably the Apple fanboys feeling defensive with the Apple stories being followed by such a catchy jingle.
The podcast starting with 'its May 13th, and its righty tighty, lefty loosey day' or whatever day it was went on for a bit longer than I would have liked, but was around for months. To only play such brilliance created by one of our own for a mere matter of days is an injustice, I tell you - AN INJUSTICE!
If you want a place to post it for download by BOL'ers like me who miss it when there is a Linux Chaser without the jingle, let me know. You did a great job on it, but I think it was even better once it was split into the 2 parts to wrap the linux chaser segment.
there is a link to it now to the linux chaser that someone else made
(and other ringers i have made)
here it is just in case http://www.mementh.com/3g/ringers/Podcast-BOL/BuzzOutLoud-Linux_Chaser.mp3
Since the show is going to go into "OMG! Apple is so coming out with a tooootally kewl new service pack! OMG! The sky is falling." mode, I think the Linux chaser has to be brought back to balance is out (because we all know that 3 vs 1 is balanced).
The fear of Linux is strong in the consumer tech media even though its all around them.
Not that I mind keeping score in the chat room, but we all know Monday will be an "Apple 35 Others 2" day. Here are a few possible headlines to go with the theme song:
Linux more energy-efficient than Windows:
