A street in New York. Famous for kitsch. Also called the great white way, although I don't know why.

August 30, 1999
by Sam Williams

"Total world domination is just around the corner, in case you didn't notice." That half-joking, half-serious comment by Linux?s Finnish creator, Linus Torvalds, shows how far his college project has come since 1991. In the last 12 months, Linux?a free, open source clone of Unix?has evolved from a curiosity to a mainstream operating system, one that some say could unseat Microsoft's Windows NT ambitions.
