I just ordered a Raspberry Pi to play with. I have a dual-boot desktop with Windows 7 Pro and Ubuntu.

He really underestimated himself and his vision!

I'm guessing that Linux is what inspired Berkley to open-source BSD into FreeBSD and NetBSD, since development of both started in 1993. OpenBSD forked from NetBSD in 1995.

Had open source BSD existed in 1993, we probably wouldn't have Linux, but before Linux there was no real reason to open-source operating systems.

Thank you Mr. Torvald!
