The marketplace will make that determination and we can keep score via Red Hat's financial performance each quarter." Since when does the marketplace support superior products? Answer: never. It supports superiorly-marketed products.

It then makes some assumptions based on air, then bases its conclusions on these airy assumptions. Which is as good a method as any, I guess, as share value rarely has any relationship to the actual value of a company.

The best result for Red Hat shareholders would be for some behemoth like Microsoft to buy them out.
