    AOL to Buy Red Hat

    Now every time you reboot your server you'll hear "You've got Linux!"

    Argh!!! This is very disturbing...

      AOL can't run shit.
      Look at icq
      They can't offer it without advertising and even with advertising it just sucks.

          AOL buying RedHat would probably mean a slow lingering death for RedHat but would probably not have any lasting impact on the Linux community. There are several alternative distributions that are in my opinion superior to RedHat.
