Sorry, a bit bitter, but if Sun Inc. is going to GPLfy ZFS, they might as well liquidate and go home.
If anybody has made money on Linux it's IBM! If ZFS goes to Linux, long IBM and short JAVA - just like Sun made pittance on Java, OpenOffice and Solaris - it will continue to make pennies. However, IBM will support it on zSeries and pSeries and sell Hardware + Linux licenses AND services by the buckets. Sun! Listen. IBM is eating your lunch, not Linux. If you give it your garrison, you'd be out of food this winter! Any suggestions on what's the next best thing ? The Register says Windows Server 2008 is shaping up nicely... anybody got a torrent ? - Akhilesh "over-reacting" Mritunjai This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
