Just while oars are being stuck in, 2 euros donated etc...

I think the problem with being an open-source only support company is
where you hit issues... how many of the large support groups are tech
specific... If you want SUN support in Ireland you get Horizon or BCS or
some such, but they will also do NT and Linux support if you pay them, a
lot of companies would like support for all their stuff under one roof,
not just Linux stuff from one group and NT from someone else .. so you
need ppl with MCSE, Cisco, SUN and Linux, and with good Linux skills to
make it work IMHO ...

or at least I think that is my coupla cent..

Dave.
