@BrideOfLinux Finally watched the Linux Sucks presentation from Brian @BryanLunduke (I hope that's the right one!) and he's made some scary observations about Microsoft, VMWare and others "buying" seats at the Linux table. Any thoughts @BrideOfLinux? I can't say I'm happy.
Lunduke said it also pays Linus (and I assume other lead devs) which brings me back to my fears about the way Linux has been going of late. I wish a properly funded (i.e. no corporate strings, ever) foundation could take over.

That's not likely to happen. The Linux Foundation reportedly pays Linus $10 million per year to serve as Linux's lead.

Which pretty much explains everything I've been bitching about. Ugh. I wish BSD had better hardware support. Maybe if I could get a larger rendering box (which is where all my horsepower goes) - then I wouldn't be so tied to nVidia's chips?
