Profits remain strong at Red Hat

,----[ Quote ]
| Results that would make other companies go 
| ho-ho-ho have become ho-hum for Linux 
| software company Red Hat, which on Tuesday 
| posted the latest in a string of strong 
| quarterly results.
| 
| The Raleigh-based company, which performed 
| well even when the recession was at its 
| worst, once again exceeded analysts' 
| expectations for both the top line and the 
| bottom line - revenue and profits.
| 
| Investors responded positively to the 
| results, which were released after the 
| markets closed. Red Hat shares rose as much 
| as 7percent in after-hours trading.

Health check: Red Hat - This year's model

,----[ Quote ]
| Red Hat has long been the poster child of
| Linux and open source, the distribution
| that has been there since the beginning,
| grew up right, got all the luck, usually
| made the right decisions, and fetched up
| on top of the pile.
|
| Staying at the top of the pile may present
| a different set of problems. Free and open
| source software has made its presence
| felt, the operating system has become
| increasingly commoditised, free software
| is rising up the stack, cloud computing
| and virtualisation are transforming the
| market for operating systems, and open
| source (in some form or another) is being
| adopted or proclaimed by many different
| companies.
