Shareware tends to combine the worst of commercial software with the worst of free software.

Intelligence is the ability to avoid doing work, yet getting the work done.

In my opinion MS is a lot better at making money than it is at making good operating systems.

That's what makes Linux so good: you put in something, and that effort multiplies. It's a positive feedback cycle.

Microsoft isn't evil, they just make really crappy operating systems.

The Linux philosophy is 'Laugh in the face of danger'. Oops. Wrong One. 'Do it yourself'. Yes, that's it.

The 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.

Programming today is a race between software engineers stirring to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen an angry penguin charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more careful about what they say if they had.

No. That's it. The cool name, that is. We worked very hard on creating a name that would appeal to the majority of people, and it certainly paid off: thousands of people are using linux just to be able to say "OS/2? Hah. I've got Linux. What a cool name". 386BSD made the mistake of putting a lot of numbers and weird abbreviations into the name, and is scaring away a lot of people just because it sounds too technical.

Microsoft isn't evil, they just make really crappy operating systems.

Helsinki isn't all that bad. It's a very nice city, and it's cold really only in wintertime.

I 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.

If Microsoft ever does applications for Linux it means I've won.

There are lots of Linux users who don't care how the kernel works, but only want to use it. That is a tribute to how good Linux is.

Most good programmers do programming not because they expect to get paid or get adulation by the public, but because it is fun to program.
