If the assumption is true I think those 10 Million would be the best spent part of that 1 Billion.
It looks like IBM spends its money on the products they themselvs use heavily, as well as training and making the name of Linux more popular (aka advertising/PR). I may have missed it but I haven't seen IBM spend money on a Linux(related) project just to further the project. If they wanted to spend $10e7 just to improve programs/tools just for the "good" of it I would be sad to see this money spent on wine. I'd like to see it spent on the development/improvement of *native* Linux apps that fulfill the need of current Windows users.
Ciao Jörg -- Joerg Mayer jmayer@loplof.de I found out that "pro" means "instead of" (as in proconsul). Now I know what proactive means.
