Didja see where IBM announced today that they have scored six new Linux wins in Europe? All government agencies, too, in Belgium, Finland, Spain, even France and Germany.

The Spaniards bought a zSeries box. The smallest one of those weighs over 2,000 pounds, with a price to match. The Finns bought two of 'em.

They sold the Germans 128 eServer xSeries machines running Red Hat Linux.

Final score: IBM +millions, The Yurps -millions, Linus Torvalds 0. Now you just keep tellin' people how bad this linux stuff is for America.

My preference would be IBM AIX, with a legal license.

I see you're coming around to my way of thinking. I hope we can become friends, one day through this.

Not to take sides, but I will call a spade a spade. You accuse Eagle boy of shilling, but you are clearly shilling for IBM and Linux.

You accuse him of name calling to make his pointless case, but then you resort to the same tactic. At first you were winning the debate, but at this point it just took a turn and Eagle boy is one step above.
