> I think the issue is that to the average person, there is nothing inspiring about the linux kernel. There's nothing inspiring to a non-average person either, it's not like the linux kernel is a work of discovery and greatness. It's nice, it's a free unix, it's everywhere and it's convenient, but it's not really blazing new trails or anything. And if the linux kernel didn't exist, people would be using something else. Most of the mindshare would probably live in FreeBSD since Linux gained its ground and staked its early marks during the BSD uncertainties of the early 90s. |
