Oracle: If RHEL were free, we wouldn't compete
,----[ Quote ]
| Now we find out that it's not a question of support at all, but rather that
| Oracle simply wants Linux to be free. Why? Because that makes its overpriced
| software seem cheaper.
|
| At least Oracle is being honest now. Coekaerts' argument is cheeky, but it
| makes strategic sense for Oracle. It just makes no financial sense for Red
| Hat.
