I don't know what the prices are around the world, but in Brazil SuSe support prices are not particulary cheap. US$ 5000,00 per machine, on a 3-year contract with priority support, 24x7.
In Brazil, some times companies use Debian as their main SO, and hire their own support.
I must confess I have no idea how much "enterprise" distro charge for support, but I think that if companies are starting to use their own support, it must not be cheap. Maybe this should send a message to RH and company
Could someone please explain to me why the American cell carriers are so damn closed? In my country the carriers are forbidden to block any phone, and I can buy any phone to use in any carrier, thank you. Why Americans living in the land of the free have to jailbreak their phones?
Seriously guys, your country are in route to become a banana republic.
In ours, Xen had the best performance. And I don't have to pay to use VM live migration, or iSCSI, FC, NFS or any kind of storage. And if I want to use some kind of "Virtual Machine Center", I have options: Citrix, Unisys, Novell...
Don't you love a multi-vendor technology? Well, I do!
Don't you love wikipedia? It was said there that Linos was "a proprietary embedded version of linux"...
Proprietary? Version? Oh, ok, it is wikipedia. There, I fixed that for you.
I'm not really a heavy user as our colleague from SF (more like twice every month), but in my experience the sex drive really goes up, and the critical capacity of measure humour goes down. When I'm high, even posts like these make me roll on the floor laughing.
According to http://www1.folha.uol.com.br/folha/dinheiro/ult91u337699.shtml, the 40 suspects - there still are 4 runaways - detained are been accused of passive and active corruption, tax evasion, falsification of documents and concealment of assets. Only 4 where Cisco executives.
Aleggedly, they had a network of 14 offshore companies, used to tax evasion and get a 70% cost reduction on Cisco products.
Yesterday, Cisco did not want to make comments for Brazilian Newspaper Folha.
I had the same results regarding Ubuntu. But in Mandriva 2006 (using laptop kernel, and laptop-mode enabled) I had better results than Ubuntu or Windows XP. Around 15-20% more battery time on my laptop.
I don't know what have you heard, but the facts are that after 2 years of investigation, they have detained:
The chairman and directors of the Brazilian subsidiary of the company;
six tax auditors (public servants);
The former president of the company in Brazil;
It seems that some people believes that american employees should be exempt of the law of any other country.
Depends on what you mean by senior executives. If you mean the top executives of the whole, multinational corporation, you are right. According to the news, "Among the detainees are the director-chairman and directors of the Brazilian subsidiary of the company North American, six tax auditors (public servants) who allegedly participated of the scheme, among others. The former president of the company in Brazil was also arrested."

You know, the only way that DNC will be taken seriously is if someone puts Oprah personal number on a bunch of shady telemarketeers call list.
And, at the same time, it has 1009 one-star reviews out of 1089. Odd, isn't it?

Maybe I'm tripping here, but I remember something in Wikipedia like a "no-original-research" policy...

Yeah, just don't do business in Brazil. Everybody will be happy, including the EU and China!
