I have to confess that the first time I even heard about the MacMillan package was when I was researching the product line at beyond.com.
In the OS section they had "MacMillan Complete Linux" or something like that .. and I thought to myself, isn't MacMillan in the BOOK business? What are they doing selling Linux? And -- why isn't beyond.com selling RED HAT?
It wasn't until a few days later that one of my more clueful buddies informed me that it was a boxed up Mandrake.
I checked again after I read this article and discovered that beyond.com is selling a MacMillan "Complete Redhat Linux v5.2 OS Del Secure Server" -- whatever THAT is. I could be wrong but it seems to be several releases behind ... with the additional irony of the recent /. discussion about the zdnet secure server trials and the patches needed for Red Hat, here's MacMillan selling what appears to be an out of date version billed as a "secure server." Interesting.
