heres a copy of the article, which I don't particularly like now that I have read it.
http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/0,2106,2289011a28,00.html
The last few sentences of the article make no sense to me whatsoever. The quote in the last sentence has no person for the "he". The previously quoted person in the article was Carl Klitscher (you still on the list Carl?) but this doesn't sound like something he would say.
Here is the end of the article:
-
Meanwhile, users sometimes fret about intellectual property. Because Linux is open-source and always developing, ownership of the underlying code isn't always clear. Companies that adopt the technology could find themselves on the wrong side of a lawsuit, even if that defies the ethos behind Linux.
IBM, RedHat and other companies sell "Linux enabled" programs that are proprietary and properly protect the intellectual property.
Those proprietary Linux systems are the ones companies and large organisations should be using, he said.

Cheers, Carl.
