Just thinking about it...how do the punters reckon Red Hat is going to make 3
billion bucks out of Linux? Or $300 million per annum on a P/E of 10 say. At
RH's recommended retail of $80 a copy that is 3.75 million copies to be sold a
year before any commissions, expenses etc.

Oh well maybe they will...then again!
