Aug 19th 2006 6:34PM 40 million + lines of code in Windows XP.
Which version of Linux? Debian 3.1 has 213 mil + of code.
"David A. Wheeler studied the Red Hat distribution of the GNU/Linux operating system, and reported that Red Hat Linux version 7.1 (released April 2001) contained over 30 million physical SLOC. He also determined that, had it been developed by conventional proprietary means, it would have required about 8,000 person-years of development effort and would have cost over $1 billion (in year 2000 U.S. dollars)."
If we take inflation at a rate of 2%, then the cost is around 1.17 Bil for numbers above.
So, in theory, it should have only cost between 30 and 40 million.
But whatever....school teachers still have to hold bake sales and pay for supplies out of their own pocket to get through a school year.
Fun times.
