One of the reasons that I really don't mind that people are selling Linux commercially is exactly because it does make me feel good that people use the product.

All operating systems sucks, but Linux just sucks less

I want my office to be quiet. The loudest thing in the room - by far - should be the occasional purring of the cat.

Modern PCs are horrible. ACPI is a complete design disaster in every way. But we're kind of stuck with it. If any Intel people are listening to this and you had anything to do with ACPI, shoot yourself now, before you reproduce.

On a purely technical side, I'm really very happy with how Linux gets used in a very wide set of different areas. It's important for development.

Let's put it this way: if you need to ask a lawyer whether what you do is "right" or not, you are morally corrupt. Let's not go there. We don't base our morality on law.

It's what I call "mental masturbation", when you engage is some pointless intellectual exercise that has no possible meaning.
