Linus Torvalds - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linus Torvalds originally used the Minix OS on his system which he replaced by his own OS; he gave a working name of Linux (Linus' Minix); but thought the name to be too egotistical and planned to have it named Freax (a combination of "free", "freak", and the letter x). His friend Ari Lemmke encouraged Linus to upload it to a network so it could be easily downloaded. Ari gave Linus a directory called linux on his FTP server, as he did not like the name Freax.
In August of 1991, he publicized his creation on the USENET newsgroup comp.os.minix:
Message-ID: 1991Aug25.205708.9541@klaava.helsinki.fi
From: torvalds@klaava.helsinki.fi (Linus Benedict Torvalds)
To: Newsgroups: comp.os.minix
Subject: What would you like to see most in minix?
Summary: small poll for my new operating system
Hello everybody out there using minix-I'm doing a (free)
operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional
like gnu) for 386 (486) AT clones. This has been brewing since
april, and is starting to get ready. I'd like any feedback on
things people like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it
somewhat
Any suggestions are welcome, but I won't promise I'll implement them :-)
Linus

Realmente é um pouco difícil de acreditar que uma lingugem interpretada em bytes codes possa ser mais rádida que uma liguagem executada em código nativo da máquina. Talvez isso até seja verdade, mas ela esquece de algo importante ... Custo... Java com certeza cria códigos mais "gordos" e requer mais memória ... talvez esse seja o preco do desempenho melhor ... anyway... ainda tenho que analisar os testes ...
