Linux ... Schminux ... show me the money.

I've always thought SUNW was a good play on Linux.


I think SUNW is *the play on Linux; in the end anyway.

There is quite a bit of froth out there over this 'Linux' thing. It's very difficult to find a Linux play with a payday. It needs to be attached to service revenue. There is no licensing royalty in the Gnu world. Corel is going to announce a distro that is more geared toward Microsoft's end user. I gotta believe though that the Linux earnings there is going to come from other places than the distribution itself.
This isn't a 'licensing' racket. Still, I'm looking for 'linux' volume to invade COSFF next week.
