Verily I say unto thee, that Roy Schestowitz spake thusly:

I'm definitely starting to come around to "the Rat's" viewpoint on many
issues, despite his advocacy of such a slack non-licence. Of course,
like Linus, he does veer towards hysteria, but then Intel have been
proudly screwing up chip design since the infamous Pentium classic
"Intel inside, can't divide" scandal, and considering Intel's lax
attitude to the problem back then, it doesn't surprise me people like
the Rat are cynical now.
