using, and advocating
Linux for a variety of
applications. During that
time I have watched the
steady progression of
Linux, gaining success as

In the past few years,
there has been
significant interest in
using open platforms for

Looking at the open
source software industry
from the outside, it's
often difficult to tell
what is really going on.

IPv6 can be used to
automatically connect a
host to a network using
stateless

With Fedora Core 4, Red
Hat, for the first time,

As Linux continues to
make significant inroads
into the data center, I
think it's important to
look under the hood of a
leading Linux server
product and compare it to
its rival, Microsoft.
Whether I'm looking to

The year is 2015 and I am
sitting at my desk typing
on my 'computer;' I

I often wonder what
happens to data when it
gets erased. Just where
