English translation according to Altavists's bablefish is - an open operating system does not only have predivide

i think they are saying that all win 2000 os's are the same so they can sport stuff while linux can have tones of difrent verson b/c poleop can mod them. (the pic starts with a penguan, the linux logo, then is moded, see how it ties in?)
