Ahem, are you running Linux v0.01?

Linus meagerly announced a little project that he was working on. It took many others to bring it the success it has had. I cannot recall Linus being a pop culture icon nor can I recall the "halcyon" days of even v1.x kernels. I doubt that any significant portion of the monks here can either.

I suggest reading the Credits for the latest kernel. Maybe search the archives of ftp.kernel.org and see the credits for v1.0. Then you'll understand that Linux didn't happen overnight. I definitely wouldn't run a kernel that wasn't written in a night of binge coding. Honestly, would you?

ALL HAIL BRAK!!!
