Red Hat broadens desktop push | |

Red Hat will try to reach closer toward mainstream computer users with its next version of Linux, Chief Executive Matthew Szulik said Tuesday. The coming version 8 of Red Hat's software, expected to be announced next week, will have an easier interface to make the software appeal more to home and school users, Szulik said. For example, the software installation process now adds a "personal desktop" option that will "create a system ideal for home or desktop use," according to Red Hat. | ||

| Woo-hoo! They're broadening their desktop presence from 0.5% to 0.7% of the desktops! |

| Of course I'm just kidding with my previous post. Actually, Red Hat's headquarters is not far from where I live and I would actually consider working there if a good job was available and jump off the Microsoft bandwagon! |

Chris - Redhat has an awesome work at home program. Granted it doesn't pay anything, but it's the thought that counts, right?
I wonder if Redhat 8 will have the KDE security patch they are ignoring in 7.3? |

Thanks sodablue - I will definately check that out. I'll search the Red Hat web site, but if you have a link, post it here so I can check it out.
Thanks, |

chrishedlund - www.sourceforge.net! It was sarcasm. :)
beeyp - "There is no point for game developers to waste $$$ and port their games to the Linux platform." Yeah because they won't buy them... But they are more than willing to pirate the Linux versions! Again, cause all software should be free, right? right? :) |

| IE can't run legally on Linux. IE is a Windows component and is permetted for use only as part of Windows. |

| Kudos to deersoft for claiming to be a business and actually trying to make money too! |

Just FYI, beeyp, there is no such company as Micro$oft. There is a company with a similar name, Microsoft, and, yes, they can sue anyone who violates their license agreements. This post was edited by BobSmith on Thursday, September 19, 2002 at 02:58. |
