I like the comment where Linus says MS would be "ashamed" to use legal tactics against competition. Since I have a hard time believing he doesn't know of MS' unclean hands in the SCO suits (he mentions Groklaw later in the interview), this comment smacks of Linus either pre-emptively shaming MS, or simply mocking them.

Not that Linus would ever deliver sarcasm with a straight face. That would never happen.
