Hey guys,

I have an idea for a pro-linux commercial I would like to create. It would
probably start out as just a viral video kind of thing, but hopefully it
would end up in getting some support from the more well-to-do in our
community. I have very limited knowledge of how to go about something like
this. Anybody interested? No real time-frame, just a pipe dream at the
moment.

Anyway, here is the gist...

*Scene 1:* Family rushes into an emergency room, Dad holding son in arms who
seems to be injured...
*Voiceover: *"What if millions of doctors, nurses, and medical staff got
together to build the world's greatest hospital"
*Scene: *Dad hugging son with cast on arm, sign in background reads "no
copay"
*Voiceover:* "And then treated everyone for free"

*Scene 2: *Mom and Dad sitting watching a symphony, kids in a crowd watching
some teen idol perform...
*Voiceover: *"What if millions of the worlds artists, entertainers, stage
hands, and tech crews got together to make the world's greatest festival"
*Scene:* Camera raises into the sky to show several outdoor amphitheaters
and millions of people or cars pouring in, like field of dreams...
*Voiceover: *"And then gave everyone free tickets"

*Scene 3:* Kids playing on computer->dad on work computer->mom on
laptop->etc...
*Voiceover:* "What if millions of the world's computer scientists,
programmers, graphic designers, and software experts got together to make
the world's greatest Operating System"
*Scene:* Close ups of cool linux eye-candy
*Voiceover:* "And then gave it away for free"...

*Voiceover:* "What if they already did"

And then a link to like GetLinux.com or something


Anybody interested?
