I'm quite sure that all those distros they mention are some derivatives of Slackware, LOL. |
They're all Slackware wannabes. What other distro has aliens and goblins on its team? Not to mention a workman and a punk. :)

A windows machine will not open this file correctly without a full version of photoshop, otherwise your covered. And as you can see Debian has the biggest tree. Ohh linspire how I miss you... Slackware hAs it's advantages (Stability), Debian had Package MAnagement, RedHat has Enterpriseness. My favorite is Ubuntu (I LIKE Unity) because It Doesnt throw a hissy-fit about my wireless card, And I use Debian for anything that takes plain command line. Also if this was based on the number of Aunt Tillies (World Domination 201) we got standing behind us now, it would be Ubuntu hands down. Now I'll go and do a slackware vs openbsd thread if you want or/and we could get back to the question. |
Red Hat took a very corporate approach to Linux, and they have done quite well with it because they do provide a subscription-based support service that works very well. Made a tidy sum off that stock over the years.

So while its not technically true they dont mention 'linux', it goes to show how much canonical dont mention linux. Quote:
Here is how you quote, and link people to an article. If you are going to keep mentioning 'World Domination 201' you really should link people to what you are talking about. Its impolite not to. Quote:
I can see why Eric S. Raymond and Rob Landley had a shot at Red Hat over that...but I can also see why Red Hat took the action they did. 'Fighting' DeCSS would have been a bad business decision IMO, even if in many ways it would have been the right thing to do. BTW, that "the leading commercial Linux distributor (Red Hat)" bit is the closest the 'World Domination 201' comes to calling Red Hat "the linux". Ohh, and canonical dont provide out-of-the-box MP3 support either...... |
World Domination 201,here, is a long paper on the transitions of computers and what linux needs in order capture the desktop, it is a little dated (written in 2006), I also ment close as in near. It gets its name from some of Linus' old talks called 'World Domination 101'.
I really need to reread it... Please note that, except in certin cases, I type everythin with my iPod, it is small and has two extra international keyboards on it (why did my dad install those?), I will make typos, and autocorrect on it assumes I'm not a computer geek and goes to the nearest thing so I sometimes get strange replacement words. Sorry... |
