    Cool Re: The Hobby That Had Change The World - Linux

    I have read in the past that this is how it all started with Linux... It was quite amazing to actually read it. I didn't know this message was actually kept
    I have been using Linux for my home laptop for about three years now. I'm using for everything. It's cool, it's versatile, it's extensible... it's free, even though this is not the most important quality. Anyway, thanks for sharing

    Great article!

    "Torvalds was also asked if he had ever been approached by the U.S. government to insert a backdoor into Linux. Torvalds responded "no" while nodding his head "yes," as the audience broke into spontaneous laughter."
