      Don't see it that way. Thousands of years ago, a simple man discovered fire, that was the base of the next civilizations. Every little step to progress is made everytime. Maybe these days internet is a very important thing, but a hundred years later, that would be just like fire compared to what we have now.

      Well think of it this way, Nobel made his prize to encourage others of his field for something. That's just what he did. Other groups of people can come up with their own prizes and awards systems. But also maybe people like Linus don't want anything, and as for mathematicians, I don't think you're wrong.

      Most of the others will say: What tf is Linux? Only OS known to ordinary people are Windows, MacOS, iOS (I doubt that - they just call it "Apple") and Android.
      Linux is as irrelevant to normal people as it was 10, 20, 30 years ago. On the tech-side (servers, companies, it-afficionados) it's a whole other story.

    Linus is such a Genius, and humble, I met him once at the annual Linux Picnic in Silicon Valley, and I also worked at Valinux in 1999, our CEO was a good friend of Linus and he would visit from time to time. I am surprised that Google hasn't made Linus a VP of Chrome and Android development. I wonder what computer he uses that has no fans and makes no noise, possibly a Mac Book Air with Linux installed?
