Linus Torvalds was just 21 when he changed the world. Working out of his family's apartment in Helsinki in 1991, he wrote the kernel of a new computer operating system called Linux that he posted on the Internet

Remember when it comes to Information Security only the paranoid will survive….






Slashdot poster: I don't use commercial applications. I don't use programs for my security tests. I do the tests myself everyday.

Slashdot reply: You don't use programs? What, you put the cat-5 in your mouth and try to *taste* the intruders?

An infinite number of monkeys pounding away on keyboards will eventually produce a report showing that Windows is more secure and has a lower TCO, than linux.
