[QUOTE=ImaNihilist;2762417]How do you read an article like that and come to the conclusion that, "Clearly the whole reason for the job offer was an attempt to kill of Linux"? There is nothing "clear" about that line of reasoning.
What other reason would there be for him to make part of the deal to stop work on his life's passion? I'm guessing if his life's passion was pottery he would not have been prohibited from doing that in his off hours. It could have been just the control freak part of Steve Jobs but the result would have been the same. My knowledge of computers is far less than most people here but I do know human behavior quite well. I thought the link was interesting for that reason. There is nothing note worthy about Steve Jobs offering a job to a talented guy. It's just which talented guy he picked.
