"At the time, most of us thought Oracle undercutting Red Hat's Linux business with its Unbreakable Linux was a big deal. Would customers flock to Oracle's cut-rate version of RHEL? Would Red Hat be pounded by Larry Ellison's minions? After a few months, the answers appear to be: No, it wasn't a big deal; and no; and no."

"I'll support your server for $1000 a year."
Hell, I support it at my salary. The bean counters however insist on the support as they want someone outside the company to blame if things go wrong. I have yet to actually use that support over the last 2 years, and when I pointed that out they still want to purchase it. Go figure.
