      This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

        I was just thinking today about how I want a tattoo along the lines of “even the ones with digital watches”, great timing!

    “Just a hobby, won’t be big” - he really didn’t think it will be one of the most sought after projects.

    I for one really appreciate the effort of supporting non-AT drives despite the initial skepticism.

      I’m glad someone was able to donate a non-AT drive because Linus could not afford it :-(

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
