Linus explains why open source works
,----[ Quote ]
| From this perspective, Torvalds' views highlight a fact that has often been
| overlooked in the recent GPL debates: free software and open source
| supporters are allies. They may be uneasy allies, blowing raspberries at each
| other and slinging mud at each other at every opportunity, but they are
| allies all the same. It's a fact worth mentioning, simply because it hasn't
| been repeated much recently.

Virtualization: Linux's killer app

| Think about it. Even Microsoft supports running Linux on its Virtual

| technology, such as that used by OpenVz or Sun Solaris, be more in
| keeping with the kind of homogeneous environments that Microsoft
| would like to see? Why would Microsoft invest its resources to
| support a virtual machine technology that can only open the
| door to Linux in the datacenter?
