Android is very different from the GNU/Linux operating system because it contains very little of GNU. Indeed, just about the only component in common between Android and GNU/Linux is Linux, the kernel.

Android is one of the most open systems I've ever seen. What makes Android great is it's literally designed from the ground up to be customised in a very powerful way.

It's been a bit sad to see that out of Linux distributions, it was Android - the most successful mobile Linux distribution - that has really introduced the malware problem to the Linux world.

The interesting thing about Android's design is how little we modified the kernel.

Linux is its own worst enemy: it's splintered, it has different distributions, it's too complex to run for most people.

I believe the mobile OS market will play out very similarly to Windows and Macintosh, with Android in the role of Windows. And so, if you want to be in front of the largest number of users, you need to be on Android.

We think Android is very, very fragmented, and becoming more fragmented by the day. And as you know, Apple strives for the integrated model so that the user isn't forced to be the systems integrator.

Linux has definitely made a lot of sense even in a purely materialistic sense.

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.
