check out www.aduva.com The solution looks very practical and needed. the things is, why would anyone invest 10m$ in that solution at this time? Please note its not Sinicism, its a question. I would really like to know what is the competitive advantage they offer. I think that it is very important to accentuate the possibilities linux can offer whenever possible because linux in particular may allow opertunities in these difficult times.

I hope I'm not making an ass of myself, but what are they doing with that money now? What is their product now? Last time I heard of Aduva, they had an easy-to-upgrade-and-configure version of Redhat 6.2, when Redhat 7.0 was already available. Since then they seem to have fired many (most?) of their employees, and I haven't heard of a new product. Is it simply because they are focusing on big enterprises, not end-users, these days? -- Nadav Har'El | Wednesday, Dec 19 2001, 5 Tevet 5762 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |If God is watching us, the least we can http://nadav.harel.org.il |do is be entertaining. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
