Jim Zemlin on 20 Years of Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Jim Zemlin, executive director of the non-profit Linux Foundation, has been
| using Linux for about as long as I have, which is roughly half the time that
| Linux has been around. I recently spoke with Jim about the Linux Foundationâs
| upcoming LinuxCon, the history of Linux, and what might be in store for the
| next twenty years.

| If you look at the history of computing, we see big established players
| dominating in their respective spaces, and then slowly wither and in some
| cases die altogether. 40 years ago computing was all mainframes and UNIX. Then
| the personal computer era began and desktop operating systems like Microsoft
| Windows ruled the roost â UNIX and mainframes were still around, but failed to
| adapt to the sea change in the primary nature of computing. In the last
| decase, weâve seen an absolute explosion in mobile computing â Microsoft is
| still a contender but thereâs no denying that theyâve been slow to react to
| the change in how people use computing devices.
