Open Source & Embedded

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the what-will-happen dept.

Embedded Geek writes "Jack Ganssle has posted a column at embedded.com pondering whether Red Hat and other open source companies serving the embedded community are due a shakeout similar to the dot com collapse. He cites Red Hat's March cuts in their embedded division and their losses of $80M to $140M a year. He admits, though, that because the embedded market is smaller and many companies are privately held it is difficult to get a pulse on what's going on behind closed doors. "

    it's a printing of a painting of the Boston Tea Party, and the k in the circle indicates that it's been certified as kosher by one of the rabbinical groups in the U.S.

    And just how do you know that? How can you be sure that it is not, in fact, a picture of a slave ship with a Klan symbol on it.
