In many ways, I am very happy about the whole Linux commercial market because the commercial market is doing all these things that I have absolutely zero interest in doing myself.

What commercialism has brought into Linux has been the incentive to make a good distribution that is easy to use and that has all the packaging issues worked out.

There's innovation in Linux. There are some really good technical features that I'm proud of. There are capabilities in Linux that aren't in other operating systems.

The thing with Linux is that the developers themselves are actually customers too: that has always been an important part of Linux.

All the best people in life seem to like LINUX.

I like to think that I've been a good manager. That fact has been very instrumental in making Linux a successful product.

I think Linux is a great thing, in the big picture. It's a great hacker's tool, and it has a lot of potential to become something more.

I've never regretted not making Linux shareware: I really don't like the pay for use binary shareware programs.

I'm interested in Linux because of the technology, and Linux wasn't started as any kind of rebellion against the 'evil Microsoft empire.'
