Putting up money all together and send him an unit.


After all, we owe much to this guy.
 
For some reason this strikes me as a very bad idea, like giving Henry Ford a motorcycle, or Alexander Graham Bell an iPhone.
 
So strange, I just had a picture of him in my head opening up his post and going "for fucks sake Madge, someone has sent me another fucking linux computer!!"
 
You could send one to Richard Stallman before

This could get really funny.
 
In the opposite instead ....send this link to Linus. Maybe he want to order one. :)
yeah but then he'd be on these forums asking when the next shipment of boards is coming in. That would make my day :lol:

Um, why? What would be the point? He's not a genie or anything. He just had an idea.
 
You know, this might be a good idea; I'm sure he wouldn't mind. :lol:
 
Quick, someone get me a wife so I can send Linus Torvalds my first born child.


I bet he'll name him or her "Tux."

He would probably write a scathing review of it, if anything. He did something great, but that guy's a bastard :D

Sounds to me like he wants developers to think about how they code instead of what they code. Sounds good to me, though it seems that it would be damn hard to program without a debugger.
 
I'm willing to put in some cash if it can be guaranteed that Linus will receive a Pandora very quickly! It would be the least I can do to thank him for his little kernel ...
 
How about we send one to Microsoft? It's been reported that they're looking at developing a version of Windows for ARM. Just think, we could ditch this linux rubbish once and for all if that happened :)
