Subject: Proper pronunciation of 'Linux'?

What is the PROPER pronunciation? Most people I know pronounce it
'Linux' (similar to 'Minix' -> 'Minux' -> 'Linux'). However, there are
a couple people I know who pronounce it similar to 'Linus'. I figured
that since Linus isn't American, his name may be pronounced
differently that it would here.

What are your opinions?
