LinuxWorld Highlights

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the on-the-front-lines dept.

Jan Stafford writes "Bernard Golden over at SearchEnterpriseLinux was wowed by the many hardware and software products on display at LinuxWorld. Among the highlights include Blackdog, a complete Linux server the size of a deck of playing cards and Astaro a bundled security suite designed for corporations. He also outlines the good, bad and funny trends of the convention."

    from the article:

    "I knew that vendors hired attractive women to staff their booths, hoping to attract the mostly-male attendees of technical conferences, but I had no idea that the subterfuge extended to the other half of the species. Live and learn!"

    Or maybe they're just extending to the other *tenth* of the species, if you catch my drift.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that, as Seinfeld would say.
