“You sat in that chair and told me in front of 400
people that IBM wasn’t particularly interested in Linux as a
“product”…Linux is only a “component”.“Well that “component” has lined your pockets in gold. You’ve
benefited from the work of thousands of developers over a decade on
order for you to use that “component”. More importantly, The Linux
Desktop stands as a digital salvation for those who don’t know they
have a viable choice in the way they operate their computers.
Somehow I get the impression that those people don’t rate your
attention or concern.”
