Re: Debian GNU/Linux at Linux.com



Personally, I prefer Debian because of its GNU emphasis and I happen to
prefer apt to rpm.  However, I have nothing but respect for Red Hat for
trying to sell Linux to corporates.  If Linux is to scale the enterprise, RH
will have made a real contribution.  Meanwhile, RH suffered commercially by
sticking with GNOME when KDE was less free than it is now.  That's putting
their money where their mouths are and one must respect that.

Overall, I wonder if Mr. Groeninger will feel the same when he has had to
battle to get Linux into a company after he leaves college.  My employers
took the plunge with Red Hat because it seems people like IBM, Intel and so
on like it as well as the techies.  In time I hope to get them onto Debian
but RH did make the move to Linux possible in a way the Debian movement is
not equipped to.
