OMG Transaction Svr Killed Microsoft! You Bastard!

[nighty5]

Lucy van Pelt's younger brother. According to TFA, Linus was named after him because of the way some geeks cling to their favorite operating system similarly to the way Linus clings to his security blanket. Before that it was called Freeax.
