Truth Happens

"First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win."

- Mohandas Gandhi

First they ignore you...

"...we think of [Linux] as a competitor in the student and hobbyist market. But I really don't think in the commercial market, we'll see it in any significant way."
-- Bill Gates, Chairman, Microsoft (1999)

Then they laugh at you...

"We'll be number one in Linux by a long shot... "I'll challenge our Linux experience against Red Hat any day."
-- Scott McNealy, CEO, Sun (October 2000)

Then they fight you...

"At Sun, as I said, it's tough to compete against a social movement, especially one in which we all believe. But compete against a single company, Red Hat? Finally."
--Jonathan Schwartz, President, Sun (July 2004)
