Tal, At least get your news straight..
AOL will NOT buy RedHat - they don't need to buy them as AOL got some shares of RedHat already (from the days Netscape invested in Redhat) RedHat will help AOL moving SOME of their servers from Sun to Linux but will not do the job themselves - There will be a hardware vendor (my guess is either IBM or HP) that will do the dirty job and RedHat will give site support as well as other support needed. That doesn't mean AOL will not have Windows servers there - there will be tons of them which will not move to Linux - streaming servers, and other servers which are depends on Windows.
