Slide from a college lecture about Linux this year. While it's not exactly wrong, I don't think it is all that complete, and accidentally humorous. I feel for the kids...
Who made Linux? Which famous company uses it now? Linus Torvalds. He thought of Linux as an alternative to Unix but Andrew Tannebum disapproved. IBM uses it now opposed to its proprietary mainframe OS.

@gregkh I think my biggest nit is Tannenbaum doesn't deserve the aside
"America founded, King George disapproves.
