TurboLinux has raised nearly $100 million through private funding and is looking to raise a modest $60 million from the IPO.
Although the market may not be kind to Linux right now, remember that the IPO process is lengthy and they will probably not officially become public until February at the earliest. Maybe the market will change by then.
Also of interest are the current owners of TurboLinux. Although executives and directors hold a majority stake (52%), Dell has 9% and Intel has almost 7%. The remainder are various VC firms. Good luck Turbo.
There are some mysteries that mankind will never be able to solve such as:
How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Blow Pop?
Why do men have nipples?
and
Is it possible for a deterministic Turing machine to solve in polynomial time problems which are solved by a nondeterministic Turing machine in polynomial time?
I was always told when I was growing up- If you don't understand something, just give up. I standby that advice.

What in the world is going on with the Bill Gates graphic? I don't understand what that thing around his head is.
