If you look into the past you can predict future. IBM is not stupid. They do not want to create another Microsoft. They are going to play on two horses, one being RedHat and the other SuSe/Novell. This makes room for IBM to make A LOT of money by selling hardware. Do not worry in five years, there will still be RedHat and SuSe - both having around 30% of the market. IBM will make it so.
What do you mean by this? Are you trying to say that Russia is poor becouse it dosen't have the DMCA - you probably don't know this but some of the Russian scientist are living very well and earning a lot... Just not all, but thats all so the case with all other scientists in the World.
I live in a small country which will be in the EU by the end of 2004 (probalby) and our gov is just thinking of singing the agrrement with M$ for the next two years and for now they didn't want to hear about the Open SOurce, may be now they will be willing to listen... I'm going to scream loud and clear...
That's whay I like to live in a small country and speaking a languange only 2 Million Popole speak - so come on FBI/CIA/NSA tap me, spend millions on translations and listen to all my boring phone calls to my girlfriend...
Do not let them get away with this. Do not pay the $30.000. Fight them and make this patent go away. (Yes I all so own a site that uses those "patents")

Just remember the past. Oberon was an OS an a PL at the same time and I think most of the readers didn't ever heard about it...
It would be nice if Linux would get a release song... Any body wants to do it?

You can learn some about it (and buy it) here
Look at Linux Security in the left upper coner thers a interesting Sponsor of LS.
A distro is (or any software for that matter(yes Windows to)) only secure if the admin who runs the distro knows what is he doing.
You can use it for your work or you can hit your self on your fingers with it, if you are not careful.
