the people who are making it in Linux under the radar screen are the embedded software people who are connected to hardware developers. I talked to one embedded real time guy the other day who said his company is on the way to 8 figure revenue and possibly profit this year.

BTW I found a prime number the other day and subtracted one from it. Strangely, I found that number to be unfactorable too. What number was it? Do you think there are there any others like that?

Also I would like to know. Are there half the number of even numbers as there are odd numbers or are they the same number? If I start counting even numbers it appears apparent that I can count to infinity, but always there are always twice the total numbers that I have just counted. If I count to infinity, given infinite time, I will have counted 2 times the infinite number of total even numbers, if I also decide to keep track of all numbers at the same time. So is 2 times infinity equal to infinity? And if so then infinity over infinity equals infinity too, doesn't it, or any other number for that matter, at the same time? So calculus is all wrong and there are no limits.
