This could mark the beginning of a beautiful relationship. They already
exchange business with Google (selling Linux servers and bundling Google
software). They are liaising with two of the biggest threats to Microsoft,
according to Ballmer's most recent public appearance. There's no ambiguity
in this. HP are no exception, either. IBM, Unisys, Oracle... the list is
long... all are hyped up about Linux.
Best wishes,
Roy
