"Linus Torvalds was only 22 when he decided in 1991 to share with friends and colleagues the code of Linux, the new OS he had created. The computer science student at the University of Helsinki could not imagine the revolution his decision would cause through the IT industry in the years to come. In this interview, he talks about why he released the code, offers his views on Microsoft and says the future belongs to open source."

I use PCLinuxOS because it is free,it does not control
what hardware i have installed,it installs in 20 mins,
it is very very easy to use,it can play and copy ALL
dvds,it streams all major radio stations,it has a repository of thousands of programs that install in a
minute and always work,and lastly the most exhillarating
reason of all, i can VISIT ANY WEBSITE AND DOWNLOAD
ANY FILE WITH IMPUNITY.
To all Windows users,have you run your Spybot Search &
Destroy today? Guess what, it doesn't catch all the
trojans.
Why on earth would i use Windows unless i was a big time gamer with no life!
