Why is Linux Successful?

You've got to be kidding me?

While certain factors cited there was true, I think they could have explained better.

First on the list: "overcontrol" led to BSD's fragmentation. Isn't the Linux kernel largely decided on by Linus?

Second on the list: "If Mac and Windows didn't suck, people would've used them". DiBona was flame baiting there. The real question is, if Mac and Windows are opensourced will Linux be as successful as it is today? More to the point, as of late I don't think Linux has yet dominated those pretty pie charts in terms of usage.

Hmmmnnn... Must be the weather.

MRT Quickies

Currently annoyed by:
- MRT waiting for people to pile up on the platform.
- Being duped replying to a message sent via Chikka. Cmon' how hard is it to slap a "From Chikka" string for all their outbound messages? They are capitalizing on the fact that most (all?) mobile phones use a certain number of digits to match incoming messages from your phone's address book. wonder how many users are duped everyday and the corresponding amount of transactions?
