A couple weeks ago Dennis Ritchie pass away. His left was less noisy, just short news in newspapers, but I have to tell you the true: Without Dennis Ritchie there would be no Steve Jobs (of course Jobs was a incredible genius too).

Dennis created the C programming language and, in collaboration with Ken Thompson, the UNIX operating system. Both pilars of our current digital era.

I was tempted to spread one of his best know quotes "C has the power of assembly language and the convenience of... assembly language", wich is quite funny (if you ever try C!). But finally I took Álvaro from photoblues (www.photoblues.es) suggestion and spread all C functions over a portrait of Dennis. I want to thank Álvaro for his help with this illustration.

Bye dmr, I hope you see you in comp.lang.c.heaven.

lol @ printf("Dennis Ritchie"/n); well the /n is kinda extra since you only have 1 output...

Well that quote usually help me to end/win any negative argument on Linux/UNIX from Windows fanboys.
