Linus and Debian

,----[ Quote ]
| Old news, but refreshing anyway: Linus is still using PINE! «Well, ignoring 
| the actual development stuff (make, compiler, editor etc), it ends up being 
| mostly just xterms and "alpine" (the newer version of the venerable 
| old "pine" email reader. Strictly text-based, thank you very much).»   
| 
| And now the outrageous part, showing how uninformed is Linus on 
| Debian: «Funnily enough, the only distributions I tend to refuse to touch are 
| the "technical" ones, so I've never run Debian, because as far as I'm 
| concerned, the whole and only point of a distribution is to make it easy to 
| install (so that I can then get to the part I care about, namely the kernel), 
| so Debian or one of the "compile everything by hand" ones simply weren't 
| interesting to me.»
