| "[With Linux], you don't have to fight with the operating system. 
| For example, if we're going to develop a feature and we run into
| an OS snag, we can develop in the OS. The OS doesn't define what 
| we can and can't do The other thing Linux lends to us is
| stability.... You can choose whether you want a lot of things
| running or just one."
