IBM Will Invest $1 Billion in Linus Tech for Its Servers and 2 Other Dow Movers to Watch

 

 

So when did Linus get his $1 Billion? 

 

I while slick was steaming today I went and bought linustechtip not tips to forward to here and later thought I would see if I could get LinusTech to forward here too. so when I goolged "LinusTech" after all of Linus's stuff showed up this came up, I thought it was kind of funny. 

 

So Linus what you going to do with all that money?

Before clicking on the link, I'm guessing that this is a troll article. Lately I've been reading about them investing in Linux.

I was confused when I saw the title and wondered why IBM is giving Linus Tech a billion until I read through the posts.
