Wired Interview with Linus Torvalds

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the stuff-to-read dept.

Tones125 writes "Wired has a lengthy interview with Linus Torvalds contrasting the tedium of his humble life with his superhero cult status, and also briefly mentioning his take on the SCO mess, Richard Stallman and John "maddog" Hall. My favourite quote: "He jokingly refers to himself as Linux's hood ornament"."

    (Stallman declined to be interviewed unless this article used his nomenclature throughout.) Imagine that.
