Summary: Ballmer and Hovsepian are failing once again to obstruct the leader in GNU/Linux servers

RED HAT is up approximately 5% after market close. It delivered its financial results a few hours ago. The stock has reached a very high value, despite Ron Hovsepian and Steve Ballmer (seen above) signing what several Web sites described as an “anti-Red Hat deal” or anti-Red Hat pact.

Novell recently lost more than $200,000,000, Microsoft is shrinking rapidly. and Red Hat is reportedly growing, which means that expenses do too.
