Although questions now surround outlook given the economy,
although deferred revenue still grew (looking good for the
next few quarters at least).

I'll be happy as long as it funds GPL.  It's the same reason
why I defend Novell against naysayers (largely after the
MS deal, although some after the bought SUSE), they still
fund a crapload of GPL development too.

There are 3,070,672 people in the U.S. with the last name Smith.
Statistically the 1st most popular last name.

There are 1,124,794 people in the U.S. with the first name Brian.
Statistically the 29th most popular first name.

There are 289,974 people in the U.S. with the first name Bryan.
Statistically the 223rd most popular first name.

There are 11,315 people in the U.S. named Brian Smith.

There are 2,917 people in the U.S. named Bryan Smith.

Approximately 1 out of every 5 Br[iy]an's spell it with a "y".

Seems "Br[iy]an" in general has "dropped out of favor" with
Generation-Y, now being only the 29th and 223rd most popular
first names, respectively.  That makes sense, since Gen-Y is
so much bigger than Gen-X -- even bigger than the Boomers.

So it brought down its popularity, quick.
