Since I'm relativly, really relativly, new to the 'Linux'
circle I don't guess my opinion would mean much but I thought I'd go
ahead and post back on this. Even though ppl might Feel that Linux
isn't Linus' we should still pay credit, and a lot of it, to him for what
he has done. Thus the 'TUX' name of the Penguin is a good example of a
way to say, "Thank for all you've done!".
