Hi,
One of the questions during the latest distro comparision discussion was
about commercial support. My answer as the Debian supporter was that I know
there is but I can't give a name off the top of my head.
Today I learned a few things:
1. HP just repported that it made 25 millions US$ from support for Debian (I
wasn't aware that they do that).
2. HP supports also RedHat and Novelle's Suse, in addition to Debian
3. There is a consultants page on Debian's web site.
The corresponding links are given below:
1. http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/3661481
2. http://h20219.www2.hp.com/services/cache/390161-0-0-225-121.html
3. http://www.au.debian.org/consultants/#Australia
Hope you find this useful.
Cheers,
--Amos
