??? Because of cost cutting? You're doing selective reading. I said the big business is moving into Linux rapidly, but that boxes aren't sold too many in the US (in general, not just SuSE - our ftp sever is MUCH busier than the box sales). You need a long breath for the big business thing, and box sales as current income are not increasing. So draw a conclusion NOW. Fortunately - although this won't help everyone - in Europe we do make significant money with the business already and not just boxes any more.
difficulties on segments of the market but you can use them on other segments where things are better as you stated. Is it because of the big guys ? Those big guys will be selling to us with a big price and a big profit while SuSE will remain dependant of the big guys. I think SuSE made a bad choise. SuSE has to build step by step its growth. People will pay for a strong and good technical SuSe even if the price is a little higher.
Don't know.
