I believe this was asked in a letter that was published a year or so
ago in the magazine. From memory, the answer was that
store.linuxjournal.com was outsourced. The company that created it used
NT and other M$ "solutions".
I've never visited that site, so I don't know how much it does. But isn't
there a couple of open-source "e-commerce" packages now? Perhaps they
could relaunch the store - running Linux, Apache, mod_perl/PHP/Whatever.
