Yes, the story is good, but there is on wrong thing: "Windows 98 not
being supported, NT not being supported, OS/2 not being supported--if
you're a decision maker in the IT field, you need to be able to look at
Linux as something that's going to continue to be supported." And he
choosed RedHat, it was a fatal mistake! These guys discontinue support
of their products much sooner, then M$ does! The worst thing is that
many software manufacturers are RH oriented, so today in many cases one
has to choose either expensive RH Enterprise or crude Fedore (I doubt
that current version will be still supported in 2 years).
