"It's terrible," De Raadt says. "Everyone is using it, and they don't realize how bad it is. And the Linux people will just stick with it and add to it rather than stepping back and saying, 'This is garbage and we should fix it.'"
Citat:
"These companies used to have to pay to develop Unix. They had in-house engineers who wrote new features when customers wanted them. Now they just allow the user community to do their own little hacks and features, trying to get to the same functionality level, and they're just putting pennies into it," De Raadt says.

"I think our code quality is higher, just because that's really a big focus for us," De Raadt says. "Linux has never been about quality. There are so many parts of the system that are just these cheap little hacks, and it happens to run." As for Linus Torvalds, who created Linux and oversees development, De Raadt says, "I don't know what his focus is at all anymore, but it isn't quality."
Citat:
There's also a difference in motivation. "Linux people do what they do because they hate Microsoft. We do what we do because we love Unix," De Raadt says. The irony, however, is that while noisy Linux fanatics make a great deal out of their hatred for Microsoft (nasdaq: MSFT - news - people ), De Raadt says their beloved program is starting to look a lot like what Microsoft puts out. "They have the same rapid development cycle, which leads to crap," he says.
Citat:
Lok Technologies, a San Jose, Calif.-based maker of networking gear, started out using Linux in its equipment but switched to OpenBSD four years ago after company founder Simon Lok, who holds a doctorate in computer science, took a close look at the Linux source code.
"You know what I found? Right in the kernel, in the heart of the operating system, I found a developer's comment that said, 'Does this belong here?' "Lok says. "What kind of confidence does that inspire? Right then I knew it was time to switch."

Izgleda da nikako da se mrdne od onih 1-2%...
Evo već od '97. svake godine je isto -> Ovo je Godina Linuxa...a nikako da se mrdnu od onih par postotaka...sramota.
Ja bih da sam linux zealot ozbiljno preispitao svoje motive i argumente.. Propagiram smeće od softvera koje je komercijalno nekonkurentno, pod blagoslovom patološkog komunista RMS-a, pod zastavom ideologije čiji je ultimativni cilj uništenje prava na intelektualno vlasništvo i ideju...
A sada specijalni savjet za sve one koji dušom i tijelom žive u GPL-u. Vaš osobni idol RMS vas poziva da batalite vaš BIOS. Zašto? Zato jer nije slobodan bwe! Zašto ne flashati EEPROM čip i izgubiti garanciju na matičnoj, kad možete osjetetiti "Free as in BIOS" dašak slobode, powered by LinuxBIOS! (istina, podržava svega par matičnih i to u alpha verziji, ali hej! IT'S FREE!!!!!!! PROGRAMERI IMAJU PRAVO ČITATI I MODIFICIRATI KOD!! Istina nitko pametan to neće radit, ali ali...).

“We’re not wanting to do anything with the BIOSes from Phoenix or any of the others,” he said. “We’re not asking them to do anything, any more than we’re asking Microsoft to do anything. These (companies) are evil. You can’t expect them to do anything just because you ask them to. Our goal is to escape from them.”
