David,
I agree with you fully.But if you have seen the progress of Linux
community from Redhat 7.1 to current 9.0 you will appreciate the effort
they are putting in to make it popular.By the way I use HP-UX to a lareg
extent but I still have a few boxes running Redhat Linux on PRODUCTION.and
believe it It rocks.Lets hope someday we will see it happening.I am
Consultant DBA for BSNL the telecom utility company of Govt of India and
guess what they are also running a mix of SCO-UNIXWARE and REdhat Advanced
Server.
See ya
