That was because Linus Torvalds did a keynote speech with live streaming when he was employed there, he was pretty stoked himself.

The only detail I remember from it was :

"Linus, what Linux distribution do you use?"

"Debian, of course"

I wonder if he still uses that on his Mac Book Air

Whenever one of the most well known open source technologists joins a (pretty secretive) firm, it's going to generate interest and speculation.

Also remember John Carmack joining Intel to work on Larrabee.

Maybe you're thinking of Michael Abrash.
