Just out of curiosity, what does a microsoft-funded IBM rival have to do with linux/oss in the first place? I don't see the connection. On what grounds do these people object to IBM not wanting to give away the store to this competitor? What …

I think openSUSE is complicated in general so it's hard to read this article with an open mind. This isn't a poorly written article, but the jargon and the overly technical explanations are simply overstated. I think UBUNTU is a lot more in sync with it's community and there is almost like a snobbishness in openSUSE I find totally annoying. But …

Umm, apparently Oracle doesn't know because that's where I got the info. Check the link: [url]http://oss.oracle.com/[/url] and take it up with them. When they list software as
