Overall I thought this book was a pretty good read. I really recomend this book for those who have yet to delve into the world of Linus Torvalds.For the most part the book is pretty autobiographical, you get some fun tid bits about his life and whatnot; however, a good portion of this book uses some pretty technical langauge, that for the reader who may not be to familiar with basic computer science issues may get lost in the book (Linus suggests for the reader who is not that savy with programming to skip that portion of the book, but that's probably the best part of the book).I think the big flaw of the book is that towards the end it just turns into one big rant... it is fun to read Linus' views on "open source" which are a bit surprizing.All and all, I'll recomend this to anyone who frequents slashdot.
