Just how strong is Red Hat's open-source business?

,----[ Quote ]
| One of Red Hat's big initiatives for FY 2010 is to increase the rate of
| adoption of its for-fee products from prospects still using for-free versions
| of its software (Fedora, CentOS, etc.), a process it only started in late
| 2008. As Red Hat CEO Jim Whitehurst notes in the earnings call, enterprises
| often find it "very expensive" to support themselves. As the data above
| suggests, Red Hat is getting better at convincing them to move to Red Hat's
| subscription offerings.
