Linus didn't say that.
A boob on Schestowitz's IRC channel said that. See the logs on Roy's trojan infected site, if you have the nerve.

One could propose those two words as a .sig for most of our trolls. It would save everyone a lot of time...
eg.,
"I bought a Linux computer from bestbuy and nothing worked its all rubish and just for hakers and anyway all my files were destroyed when it crashed and itunes is crap anyway. My girlfriend saw it and left me strate away for a guy with a porsh car and I lost my job becoz I suggested Linux for a server and its rubbish becas it crashes and it needs a command line. From now on I use windows.
