VA Linux Now VA Software

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the remember-when-this-was-a-linux-company dept.

g2g was among the people who noticed that Slashdot & OSDNs parent, VA Linux Systems has changed its name to VA Software. vasoftware.com is the new domain as I guess they are focusing on SourceForge and OSDN. On the upside, I guess newspapers will stop calling the company 'Linux' all the time.

    Umm, what stock chart are you looking at?

    Looking up LNUX shows that it has a moderate downslope, then being relatively flat since the beginning of September, with a recent moderate rise.

    This is not totally unlike the Dow Jones Ind. Avg., which is recovering quite nicely from the Sept. 11th events, and is even making up ground lost since the recession started and the dot-bomb era.

    Now, I am not sure that VA is going to do well. But the stock market doesn't agree. At this time, the stock is up ~3%
