 ===>  UNITEDLINUX

Linux vendors Caldera International Inc., Conectiva S.A., SuSE
Linux AG and Turbolinux Inc. today announced that they will
standardize on a single Linux distribution for the enterprise,
to be known as UnitedLinux, in a move they say will streamline
Linux development and certification.

 ===> REVIEW OF 3 PENGUINS

eWeek Labs' tests of SuSE Linux Inc.'s SuSE Linux 8.0,
MandrakeSoft SA's Mandrake Linux 8.2 and Red Hat Inc.'s Red
Hat Linux 7.3 revealed that the penguins have made some
great strides in usability to the point that users unfamiliar
with Linux could comfortably find their way through a machine
installed with any of these Linux variations.

"A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its
opponents and making them see the light, but rather because
its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows 
up that is familiar with the idea from the beginning."
                 Max Plank - Nobel physicist
