All types of competition are good and getting Linux mainstream is important for it's future development as well.Just my $.02 |

Didn't IBM report [url=http://www.techspot.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1 884]HERE[/url] that it was promoting RedHat E on its servers ? It would seem IBM is pretty confident in its victory against SCO in that lawsuit. |

The HP decision stands the chance of getting the O/S out to the masses. |

Well I was actually refering to the article about Novell.:)But it's true HP is taking the lead offering Linux pre-installed on almost all of its PC offerings. I know Dell offers Linux RHE ( Red Hat Entreprise ) pre-installed on certain low-end machines if you pre-order at least 25 units.They don't mind as much if it is for a server though. |

I wonder if this will cause similar discounts from Microsoft® as in Thailand.. from $600 to $37. |
