Those Linux people amongst you will be familiar with the message on startup that says something like "
Portions copyright Swansea University Computer Society"
, and of course, Linux person Alan Cox.
Well, about 15 years ago, I used to share late night hack-sessions regularly in Swansea university computer room with him, and more often or not, as I had a car, I'd drive him home about 2.45 am - just in time to catch the chip shop that closed at 3.00am en route! And I sorta almost once kissed his wifes sister, on what would very loosely be described as a date, sorta.
Back in those days, I was a VAX/VMS person, and he kept trying to persuade me that Unix was better !
Now, how tenuous, sad, and geeky is this ?!?!?!
