How is that license plate holder legal? You can't even see the state name, and you have to guess based on the lower loop on the "g". Don't drive that car into Texas ( http://www.senate.state.tx.us/75r/senate/members/dist25/pr03... ) or any other state with similar laws...
Off topic a bit, and maybe this is just me, but is Wired one of the slowest loading sites on the internet for anyone else?

He moved to America in 2004, and became a US citizen in 2010. Two of his kids are US citizens as well (by virtue of having been born there).
I think he moved to the US sometime in the late 90s.
RedHat's $1m stock is his only big payout, apparently. Rather sad, considering the number of mid-level facebook engineers who will become many times as rich in a few months.
Where does this put Stallman?

He strikes me as the kind of guy who just wants the best tool for the job. If it doesn't exist, he makes it.
As opposed to Richard Stallman, who probably does not drink coffee unless it comes from a coffee maker running free softare.
Stallman: I'm less concerned with what happens with embedded systems than I am with real computers. The real reason for this is the moral issues about software freedom are much more significant for computers that users see as a computer. And so I'm not really concerned with what's running inside my microwave oven.
Again, I'm happy if people find GNU/Linux useful for that. If some companies finds it useful in a microwave oven I'll say, "That's nice." But I don't think that's where the social and political issues arise. Those arise where the computers are visible to the user as computers. We can load software into them. We have thus the possibility of sharing and changing software. And then it becomes a significant question whether we are allowed to do so or whether we are blocked from doing so.

It proves no such thing. There are many people who do what they love and are failures.

He could roll Steve Jobs style and have no plate.
