IBM’s new promotional Linux interactions are so creepy they could have been directed by David Lynch or Cronenberg.
With the creepy old-school “Twighlight Zone” kid, the moody, atmospheric music and the “Linux is Everywhere” tagline, this ad freaks me the fuck out.
Personally, if a mainframe opened, and that freaky little kid got out of it, I’d run for my life!

I wasn’t aware these were also television commercials until I saw one last night. They are a little less creepy in the commercials, but still creepy.
Glad I got my Linux cert., ‘cause supposedly, it’s READY!
