Unhappy

very old news - not Linux Distros Lead

wasn't this first reported about a month ago... Gavin, surely you could be a little more on top of your game! (And check his role, he was a marketing guy, no technical contribution).

Red Hat tells Wall Street it wants Main Street

Why bother - I have OpenSolaris

The problem with Red Hat is that the "cheaper" message no longer works. I have OpenSolaris when I want it, on HP, Dell and Sun. And at least Sun is innovating with technologies like ZFS - whereas Red Hat seems to be focusing on cost reducing Java, which is also free with Glassfish. I just don't know what Red Hat stands for anymore... nor do I understand why I need them.
