Well, I for one would like to know exactly why it's called "Red Hat". Is this some sort of communist plot? Their logo *does* look rather
cloak-and-dagger.


Maybe they should change their versioning scheme to colors: redhat,
bluehat, greenhat, aquahat.  That wouldn't seem as sinister and then
people could complain about them being trying to be too much like Apple
instead of MS.  That would be refreshing in its own way.

Sure, people will always have something to complain about...

But then we'd avoid the whitehat releases as white is considered an
unlucky color by the Chinese and would probably be considered to be
plagued with problems, much like the .0 releases are now <wink>.


indeed, but you also know that we would ALL run out to get the blackhat release... <grin>

When I worked there, we were trying to get them to release an ubergeek version...

solid black matte finish box with dark grey logos and only slightly lighter grey writing...

and the only thing in the box would be a set of CDs and a shirt.

I thought that that would sell like crazy, but marketing weenies dont understand the lure of really cool things to geeks...

I guess you can't win.

No, I guess not... <grin>
