In this four-part miniseries within the Innovate @Open podcast, we explore the alternative histories of open source software through the voices of many of the people who lived through its rise.
In this third and penultimate episode, we play out the great Linux vs. Windows rivalry of the 1990s and 2000s. What might have happened had Linux Torvalds decided to take up ice sculpture instead of writing Linux? Or what could a kinder, gentler, and more politic Microsoft have done to steer history further in its favor to the detriment of the Unix and Unix-like operating systems?
