Hey, Relax! They are simply going to adapt it to
their own architecture. Even if they have screwed
good ideas with bad marketting (microchannel) they
aren't going to own Linux nor have substantial
control over it. And for perspective,
microchannel may have done some harm to the
computing market but we still have PC's and they
are doing just fine. After a series of software
under performers, let's see what they've learned.
After all, they have adapted MS winders and they
didn't screw it up (very tongue in cheek!)
