Some Linus Torvalds's quotes. Goto "Linus Torvalds's quotation" section for more.I don't expect to go hungry if I decide to leave the University. Resume: Linux looks pretty good in many places.
Tags: Good, Leave, PrettyI like to think that I've been a good manager. That fact has been very instrumental in making Linux a successful product.
Tags: Fact, Good, SuccessfulI very seldom worry about other systems. I concentrate pretty fully on just making Linux the best I can.
Tags: Best, Pretty, WorryI've been employed by the University of Helsinki, and they've been perfectly happy to keep me employed and doing Linux.
Tags: Happy, Keep, UniversityI've never regretted not making Linux shareware: I really don't like the pay for use binary shareware programs.
Tags: Linux, Making, PayLinux has definitely made a lot of sense even in a purely materialistic sense.
Tags: Definitely, Linux, SenseShareware tends to combine the worst of commercial software with the worst of free software.
Tags: Computers, Free, WorstThe thing with Linux is that the developers themselves are actually customers too: that has always been an important part of Linux.
Tags: Actually, Linux, ThemselvesBefore the commercial ventures, Linux tended to be rather hard to set up, because most of the developers were motivated mainly by their own interests.
Tags: Hard, Interests, RatherPeople enjoy the interaction on the Internet, and the feeling of belonging to a group that does something interesting: that's how some software projects are born.
Tags: Enjoy, Feeling, GroupThe cyberspace earnings I get from Linux come in the format of having a Network of people that know me and trust me, and that I can depend on in return.
Tags: Depend, Return, TrustHelsinki may not be as cold as you make it out to be, but California is still a lot nicer. I don't remember the last time I couldn't walk around in shorts all day.
Tags: May, Remember, TimeI never felt that the naming issue was all that important, but I was obviously wrong, judging by how many people felt. I tell people to call it just plain Linux and nothing more.
Tags: Judging, Tell, WrongI used to be interested in Windows NT, but the more I see it, the more it looks like traditional Windows with a stabler kernel. I don't find anything technically interesting there.
Tags: Interested, Looks, UsedThe fame and reputation part came later, and never was much of a motivator, although it did enable me to work without feeling guilty about neglecting my studies.
