    90% of the poster think SUN is going the way of the dodo.

    If your numbers are correct and my math is correct, you are making about 40-50 dollars an hour.

    40-50 dollars an hour is approx. 80-100 thousand a year(if you work 40 hours a week)

    I would say you are doing quite well.

    As a matter of fact care to let me know what you are selling?

    You are just thinking GUI.

    They may look different but alot of the internals are the same.

    So is your app going to use RPMs and debs or both.

    Trying to figure out which software is installed on both systems, completely different code is needed.

    Windows? same code works for both.

    So on linux you can choose which package managament you prefer, windows you stuck with what MS give you.

    Either way something this is great sometimes it is not so great.
