Linus Torvalds, whattaguy. Kinda.

He'd be one of those people that would rather re-compile Arch every single day than run Debian.

You do know he works with the kernel ever since he created it, only because he enjoys it right? Well, he's only coded like 2% of the total kernel, but he has say in everything. But other than the kernel work he doesn't care much about working on it. And he used OpenSuSe on his MacBook Air for years until they started using Gnome3, which he deemed as shit. Because "If you assume only idiots use your software, then only idiots will use it" and stuff about how they've become so obsessed with being user friendly they've made it more complicated and drifted away from their goal of simplicity. which he then told everyone to just use KDE.

He's also said he doesn't care for light weight systems and build your own systems like Arch. He just wants usability for himself and ease of use. He may be egotistical and elitist, but he isn't similar to a lot of the elitist linux community. In fact, he even stays politically absent from discussion on "Free Software"


And if you're trying to make references to compiling a kernel think Gentoo, not Arch. Arch users aren't that hardcore. I use Gentoo for the most part, but the only computer I have is a 1.4 GhZ dual-core laptop with 1 GB of RAM. I don't have time for 4-6 day compile times. (Not to mention 2 day download times with our bandwidth here)


Not going against you just saying :p
