Caps? by treble_clef2003-04-24 07:14:07

    Actually, it's not a "proper" name by curly 2003-04-24 07:39:44
the guy's name is Linus.  Linux is a derivation of a proper name so the grammer rules I learned, lo those many years ago, neither require nor prohibit caping it.

ISTRT Linus says it should be capitalized.  It's his word so IMHO he has the, er, last word.

Personally, I type Linux often so I mix.  In public documents I cap, but I rarely cap in program comments or post-it notes.
