Ms. <<<RED HAT LINUX = THE LINUX? And perhaps vendors of Unix - and Linux - should be the ones worried about the deal. "This has a bigger effect on the SCOs of the world than the Microsoft Windows NTs," Marshall said. Making one distribution of Linux "official" could steal market share away from the myriad Unix and Linux platforms. What's more, it could turn Linux into a proprietary system - a scenario despised and feared by most Linux developers. Indeed, at least one Linux dealer is worried. Scott McNeil, president of North American operations, for Linux provider and Red Hat rival S.u.S.E. Inc. said he thought Intel's backing of a single Linux vendor would be a bad idea. "They wouldn't want to cut their throats," he said.>>> Glad you asked. This is from ZDNN Sept 25,1998. Thank You JK
