LNUX may be ready to make its move.......Now that investors have banished Linux-related stocks to the outer circles of junior high society, it's time for a softened, but restrained look. Are there any companies worthy of a wan embrace? Prakesh Patel of W.R. Hambrecht tells us to hold on: "Focus on the business model, regardless of the operating system." His favorites, and many other analysts', include Red Hat, VA Linux and Cobalt. (W.R. Hambrecht hasn't performed underwriting for the three companies, though it handled open-source community Andover.net's sale to VA Linux.) All three companies are growing at impressive clips and expect to be profitable not too far in the future -- Cobalt in the first quarter of 2001, Red Hat in February 2001 and VA Linux by the end of 2001. During their market exile, these three stocks have solidified what could be future prom queen status.
