Wow, this article is sufficiently uninformed to assure me that RedHat
shares are indeed a good bet.

According to this, VA Linux is a distro, MS will integrate Linux into
Windows because it's non-proprietary code and we can't stop them (he
evidently hasn't read the GPL) and Unix was such a poor money maker as
an OS that it got "thrown out" into the public domain.

I get the impression he thinks Netscape is an Operating System too, but
maybe the 'O/S' in that sentence refers to something else.  Still
doesn't make any sense though.

I feel a flame coming on...
Kathryn.
