Not to mention all the "bubba"s out there on a weekend bender.... What a great mix Bud lite and Flying machines... It is bad enough that it happens on the ground.
Why won't it play anything on http://www.real.com ?
I'm all for this but come on... every link I click on returns an error... "The player does not have the capabilities to play back this content"
What does it play?
We are looking at Linux at the Co. I work for with over 60K users.
My issue with RH is there per-seat license for "EVERYTHING".
They have a per-seat cost for support of the os then there is a cost to have an internal Eratta server and a per-seat cost for each machine that you want to get updates from the Eratta server...
We had RH and SuSE flyout to out World HeadQuarters and give us their presentation of who they are and what they have to offer
The biggest issue I have with RH is they are not completely Open-Source... By this I mean that we asked them "What if we choose RH and pay for everything we need for say 5 years, then we decide we don't like RH supporting us and we want to pay someone else or do it ourselves, What can we no longer use that RH makes? They didn' tlike this question at all
Their answer was that we could not use Eratta for our updates. We would have to remove and destroy the code for eratta.
We asked SuSE the sam question and their answer was "You lose nothing. You can use 'EVERY' piece of software that SuSE makes and distributes on their Distro... Forever no matter who supports you."
So for me and the company I work for, I don't want to get stuck with a particular vendor cause they say I can't use a "VERY IMPORTANT" part of the updating of systems especially supporting over 60K desktops.
It seems RH is trying to get some sort of "Lock-In" with their products instead of trying to win loarg companies with their "excelent" support.
I thought Linux was about "No Lock-in" and otal freedom?
