crikey!
all these worries about this company or that company using linux and whether
it's ready on time or not, and product schedules and shipment dates etc, etc,
etc.
one thing to remember...
no one is FORCED to use linux. it's free. they can use it or not. if they want
it they conform to the way it's done. if linus takes 3 years or even 5 to bring
out 2.6, who cares! we'd LIKE it sooner - but hey - it might only take 9 months.
all this is just FUD.
i can see linux getting VERY big and maybe some big companies like IBM etc
paying linus and some others BIG money to keep at it full time. if IBM spends a
billion on linux in a year, and makes a trillion for that investment - whats a
million yearly to linus to work on it full time. go for it linus. the guy's a
genius!
ben
ps. i just love it when M$ FUDs linux. just makes everyone work harder. makes
linux better. ha ha, go for it ballmer.
