ABCNEWS.com: Chat with Linux Torvalds

Thanks to Larry J. Blunk for
this link.

Not to be outdone by MSNBC, ABC News is hosting a Linus chat
forum on Wednesday at 2:00pm ET.

“In 1991, a 21-year-old Finnish university student named Linus
Torvalds wanted a better operating system for his computer. With
none available that suited his particular needs, he decided to
write one. At the urging of friends, he posted his new OS kernel
online. Other people started using it, tinkering with it, and
improving it.”

“He will be taking questions from ABCNEWS.com readers on
Wednesday at 2 p.m. ET. You can post your questions now!”
