just wondering how big we need to be to achieve all this. I know going corporate
makes a lot of money, just hoping we can keep the mandrake on desktop in the
meantime. redhat has gone corporate+embedded, turbolinux is corporate, SuSE is
in between. The only big linux that is really desktop is Corel. Hope we won't
have to leave them the field! I think a lot of people agree with this :-)

All i hope is that we can stay opensource and even opendevelopment. Only RedHat
is all opensource (not totally opendevelopment, but neither are we :-( 
Maybe also connectiva (caldera is not, suse a little, turbolinux is not,
easylinux is not...)
