Um, as he was talking about Linux, I suppose that MySQL and PostGres would actually bolster his claim. Perhaps to his own detriment, though...

However, I liked this...

"The computer industry is finally moving from a cottage industry to an industrial industry. We're moving at breakneck pace toward the 19th century," he quipped.

Gotta say, that's pretty funny.
