Comment Red Hat /= Fat Cat (Score 1) 155
While fears and concerns are necessary and just regarding Red Hat's apparent domination in linux distribution, comparisons to, even REMOTE comparisons, to Microsoft are completely uncalled for. Allow me to support my statement.
First, the obvious: Linux is not a controlled, or proprietary API. Second, there is no Billish prescence in the Red Hat camp. Third, RH's features/additional code
A: Do not corrupt the kernel
B: Is actually useable on other distros (after a few hours of CC)
C: Is available in full source on the web.
And finally, in a positive not to Red Hat, they've made Linux available in retail outlets.. where as a kid I first started my experimentations, and wasted all my allowance.
I've seen the 11 year olds in the stores carrying around 5.1. Unfludgingbelievable.
