"Linus perpetuated the lie [that he is the inventor of the Linux kernel],
and I have a problem with this smarmy attitude," Kenneth Brown, president
of the Alexis de Tocqueville Institute, told LinuxInsider. "How did he
develop so much code in just six months? Everyone else has taken years to
develop operating systems."

.. and to finish off a nice article by Tannenbaum (Minix owner/inventor) on
Brown himself
