Yeah but i heard they locked him in an office with WP7 prototypes and won't let him out until it stops sucking 10x worse than meego. Probably he will quit soon.

the reason why IBM contributes to Linux is because some companies want to run Linux over IBM's property OSes (AIX, OS/400 or MVS and the like) but still want to make use of the hardware quality of IBM.

maybe you should learn to read, too?
*yawn*

"At LinuxWorld, IBM to announce that it received more than $1 billion in revenue from Linux sales, plus a slew of product and new customer announcements.

Linux Brings In $1 Billion in Revenue for IBM

NEW YORK—IBM executives are preparing to announce at the LinuxWorld trade show here that the company received more than $1 billion in revenue from sales of Linux-based software, hardware and services in 2002.
"

See the date? They've made their first billion from Linux back then.

And.... wanna know about 'IBM the hardware company?'


Code:
1.1 Business Segments[2]

1.1.1 Global Services (57% of Revenue)
1.1.2 Systems and Technology (18% of Revenue)
1.1.3 Software (23% of Revenue)
1.1.4 Global Financing (2% of Revenue)

Yeah, take a guess which of those 4 are the part where they 'sell hardware'.

Ok, you're getting enough free education from me. If you want to learn more, I'll be chargin you some tuition fees.

I ain't givin free clues to clueless peeps no more.

who said money is corrupting?
That is true, in fact they have stopped distributing atomic patches addressing individual issues (unless you pay for support).

Leaking individual patches would cancel RHN subscription.

The whole source is still available.

resistive touchscreen is a „no go“ nowadays. the mainstream want an iphone-like screen and the consumer N9 is for them (not like the good old N900). And if you look at the actual TS-Phones made by nokia, you will notice that they all have a cap. screen. So you can be 100% sure the N9 has it too. BUT there is a rumor that it will have a special new display making a HW keyboard „dispensable“ and MAYBE this new technology is a mix of capacitive and resistive screen.

EDIT: BTW in 2 days, 20h and 9 minutes we will know more
