Do-It-Yourself IPO
You too can get rich quick by translating an existing Linux
distribution into one of the following untapped markets:
- Babylonian
- Hittite
- Ancient Egyptian (hieroglyphics may be a challenge, though)
- Pig Latin (this may be the strongest type of encryption allowed by the
DOJ in the near future)
- Mayan
- Cherokee
- Cyrillic (to take advantage of the booming Russian economy)
- Redneck
- Klingon (it's a wonder this hasn't been done yet)
- Wingdings
Once you start marketing your new product, a highly lucrative
self-underwritten IPO is just months away!
