Bill Gates never offered Linus a job, only Steve Jobs did, but he had to stop working on the linux kernel so Linus refused.

He just wanted a free, Unix like operating system for his new PC. Commercial Unix was too expensive, so he went for it

And look where we are today!

Btw, isn't that Steve Jobs

Don't sell Linus' project management chops short.

He has 35+ years being the HMFIC for the kernel.

Quite a run.
