Just saw this on lwn.net/daily..

Hasbro has announced a ".com edition" of the venerable game Monopoly.
The railroads have been replaced with telecom firms, which makes sense.
Amusingly, the utilities have been replaced with Sun Microsystems and
Linux. Perhaps Linux should have gone in as "Free Parking" instead? 

Update: here's a picture of the .com Monopoly board with Tux in the
Utility spot. (Thanks to Dave Whitinger).
