All,
I've just read this piece of news. Excellent! North Carolina's biggest
Linux company makes money. Who said that you cannot make money out of
OpenSource?
And they make money following the GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles). That is, with real numbers, unlike Enron and others.
I'm very glad that Red Hat is doing so well. This sends good messages
about Linux to the PHBs that still doubt. Maybe now they will be
confident in using software from a *gasp* money-making corporation :P
Anyway, at my work we go Linux and OpenSource. Yes, we have no PHB. We
have a Geek Boss.
Is it a coincidence that Red Hat is making proffit after hiring our
former TriLUG's president? I suspect that Kevin will pay some pizza for
TriLUG with his big'ole fat x-mas check.
Salut,
Sinner
