James Bond Operating Systems

I’ve now seen all the Pierce Brosnan and all the Daniel Craig James Bond movies, and I’ve come to an important realization.

Successful Bond villains run Linux on their computers.

Silva in SKYFALL ran Linux, and he (basically) accomplished all his objectives.

Trevelyan in GOLDENEYE probably ran Windows 95, and he fell to his death off a giant satellite dish.

There is an important lesson here. Use Linux! Don’t fall off a giant satellite dish like Trevelyan.

Though to be fair, Trevelyan was played by Sean Bean, and Sean Bean always dies in his movies.
