To little, too late

I worked for Unisys for years, as an employee and as a conractor on Unisys projects. I'm also a Linux type and let me tell you, I place little faith in *any* moves Unisys makes. Since their heyday in the 1970's, they have missed the boat at every opportunity and this is just another step down the hole, too little, too late.

They'll still be around in one form or another, but as far as being a force or anything to really consider, nope, never happen. They have their large accounts, mainly public and if they actually grab any market share putting Linux on a ES700 or Clearpath I'll probably get a job with them<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:-) But I'm not going to book a flight...

Return to Unisys suddenly loves Linux: Should Linux users return that love?
