-> The day people think linux would be better served by somebody else (FSF
-> being the natural alternative), I'll "abdicate". I don't think that
-> it's something people have to worry about right now - I don't see it
-> happening in the near future. I enjoy doing linux, even though it does
-> mean some work, and I haven't gotten any complaints (some almost timid
-> reminders about a patch I have forgotten or ignored, but nothing
-> negative so far).
->
-> Don't take the above to mean that I'll stop the day somebody complains:
-> I'm thick-skinned (Lasu, who is reading this over my shoulder commented
-> that "thick-HEADED is closer to the truth") enough to take some abuse.
-> If I weren't, I'd have stopped developing linux the day ast ridiculed me
-> on c.o.minix. What I mean is just that while linux has been my baby so
-> far, I don't want to stand in the way if people want to make something
-> better of it (*).

-> Linus

-> (*) Hey, maybe I could apply for a saint-hood from the Pope. Does
-> somebody know what his email-address is? I'm so nice it makes you puke.

-The nice thing about Windows is - It does not just crash, it displays a

The only "intuitive" interface is the nipple. After that, it's all learned.
