Re: Red Hat as the "next Redmond"Re: Red Hat as the "next Redmond"Posted Aug 29, 2002 17:49 UTC (Thu) by x_nc (guest, #2633)Parent article: Red Hat as the "next Redmond" There is a backlash against Red Hat from many consumers and government agencies... What?!? I missed this the first time around. I work with many "Government Agencies" and they are damn near standardizing on Red Hat. I know there's a backlash in the Linux "Power User" community but, as I said on some other site which I can't remember, it's more related to the "fight the establishment" attitude in the Software Libre community. See, the reason many people moved to Linux is because it was "radical". Now that Red Hat is seen as the main Linux vendor it is now look upon as the establishment. If SuSE or Caldera or any distro vendor were in the same position now that Red Hat is in you would see the same backlash against them.
