Dear Dakota, could you possibly explain with simple math how much of what Rhat is going to sell to generate revenue to lets say have a P/E of 100 and do you expect to see it in within 10 years. I think a P/E of 100 requires a revenue of about 66 million dollars. I buy my redhat software for 1.99 from cheapbytes.com. I love using Linux and have used it for over 6 years. I used five major distributions and seem to come back to Redhat every time. I see the Linux market growing enormously. I just don't have a clue as to how Redhat is going to generate revenue having bought earlier versions of Linux in Bob Young's kitchen. Tom Watson tosiwmee YES, I do use linux......I make a living with Linux... watman.com IN fact I'm retired to Electronic Direct Access Tradeing because of lucky or good picks of Linux stocks that currently do not include Rhat.
