And how. Staying away from Linux now will mean others will take over
one's territory. It would be very interesting to know what Linux based
empires are quietly in the works right now.
The server stuff is merely growing pains.
These PCLOS guys are going to have alot of growing pains, because they
are going to really expand.
Reminds me of "The Soul Of A New Machine," -- the story of Data General.
The problems of company expansion could be horrible.
I especially like the name. It says what it is -- Linux for PCs, and it
doesn't try to make some social statement. I'LL bet they'll get business
based on name alone, particularly conservative businesses who will like a
conservative name.
