You'll learn that *BSD's boot and startup are so simple people can do it themselves, without hiring a systemd expert. It's hard to monetize simplicity. In the words of former Redhat CTO Brian Stevens: ===================================================== "Red Hat's model works because of the complexity of the technology we work with. An operating platform has a lot of moving parts, and customers are willing to pay to be insulated from that complexity. I don't think you can take one finite element - like Apache - and make a business out of it [using our model]. You need product complexity." ===================================================== http://asay.blogspot.com/2006/10/interview-with-red-hat-cto-brian.html SteveT Steve Litt Author: The Key to Everyday Excellence http://www.troubleshooters.com/key Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/stevelitt ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
