Interesting how Linus seems to be losing his accent. There was a sample audio file included in older versions of Red Hat Linux that had Linus saying, with a fairly heavy Scandinavian accent, how to pronounce Linux, and back then, it was more like Lee-nooks. He now seems to prefer the more Americanized Linn-ucks pronunciation.
