The Inq

Currently the outfit runs Sun Microsystems SCO Linux. The Marshals initially used Sun SCO because it ran on the Intel Pentium processors the agency had. But now it estimates it will save $50,000 to $100,000 a year by using Red Hat.

The outfit was considering Solaris instead, but dumped that idea in favour of Red Hat-falvoured Linux, a spokesMarshal said, here.

I wasn't aware of the plans to merge Sun and SCO and make them a Linux development house, but you see what happens when you don't pay attention?
