For your second writing assignment, I want you to write a two to five page, typed (or word processed) paper about Linus Torvalds. "Who is Linus Torvalds?", I hear you cry. Well, that is part of the assignment. You need to use available information resources, e.g. the library or the internet, to find out if such a person exists, what if anything he is known for, and some biographical information about him. Be sure to include proper references to your sources of information. Hint: don't just say I found this in the library or on the internet. Good luck!
