The Winux virus

The Winux virus is reported to affect both Windows and Linux boxes/applications. The article says it's "written in a primitive computer language called 'assembly language'." On a side note, who do they get to write these articles? Certainly they are uncomfortable with technology...
Ah, yes. Our Paleolithic ancestors used to convert this so-called "assembly language" into machine code with their bare hands! I read that French archaeologists found a copy of "Borland Turbo Assembler" in the caves of Lascaux.

"Primitive" word come from Latin (much more then a
dead language , it's still alive and kicking) and also
means "elemental, original" . , but I doubt that the
dude that wrote the article knew that. Coincidence ? :D
