I guess it is time to find a different distro. If the company's top management fails to see the importance of promoting and developing Linux for home users - then nothing good will come out of such company.
"Matthew Szulik, chief executive of Linux vendor Red Hat, said on Monday that although Linux is capable of exceeding expectations for corporate users, home users should stick with Windows" Here's the article: http://news.zdnet.co.uk/software/linuxunix/0,39020390,39117575,00.htm Please read a discussion too! Giovanni +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ a good response from one of the readers: Name: Anonymous Location: New Orleans, LA Occupation: IT Comment: AN OPEN LETTER TO REDHAT (I already sent a copy to them) I read the comments of Matthew Szulik at http://news.zdnet.co.uk/software/linuxunix/0,39020390,39117575,00.htm I have to say, at this point, I am very upset with your CEO and company. I have been using redhat linux since August 1997 on my desktop. I bought a Geforce2/GTS card when they came out, and there is no difference between my computer and anyone else's. That being said, I will never again use nor recommend your products to anyone again. Your comments that consumers should use windows and not switch to linux for the desktop was a slap in the face for all the people working on desktop linux. MANY strides have been made recently and many more will continue to be made: with xandros, lindows, mandrake, etc. Your comments show your absolute lack of community feeling/goodwill for the open source community. I will never again use redhat, use fedora, nor recommend either to my employer or anyone else. I will recommend those companies that are committed to seeing open source progress. Your advertisements for the monopoly and against the linux community sicken me. Goodbye.
