Linus Torvalds On Software Commoditization
The technology blog
Good Morning Silicon Valley brings us an
interview with Linus Torvalds on the future of open source, proprietary software and Microsoft. Hopefully, the eventual commoditization of software will break Microsoft's monopoly on software infrastructure, and thus level the playing field and bring forth more interesting things in the software landscape. The topic is also touched on in an
essay by
Ian Murdock, which will appear in the book
