"On August 25, 1991, an obscure student in Finland named Linus Benedict
Torvalds posted a message to the comp.os.minix Usenet newsgroup saying
that he was working on a free operating system as a project to learn
about the x86 architecture. He cannot possibly have known that he was
launching a project that would change the computing industry in
fundamental ways. Twenty-five years later, it is fair to say that none
of us foresaw where Linux would go — a lesson that should be taken to
heart when trying to imagine where it might go from here."
