children [1]receive inappropriate spam e-mail touting get-rich-quick schemes, and almost half receive spam linking to pornographic materials.

Which Red Hat Should Be Worn in the Enterprise? http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/06/09/199250

[0]weatherbug asks: "I've recently been appointed as a member of a team
to help determine the direction our organization is headed with Red Hat Linux. Currently we're using multiple versions from Red Hat 6.x through Advance Server 2.1. However, now that Red Hat has effectively separated their distributions into a 'consumer' (Red Hat 8,9, etc) and 'enterprise' (Red Hat Adv. Server 2.x, etc), we aren't sure which version we want to adopt. A Red Hat salesman recently told us that the 'consumer' version of Red Hat was mostly for hackers and hobbyists who weren't concerned about stability and wanted the most up-to-date software, while the 'enterprise' version would be more stable and have a five-year product lifetime. As a long time Linux system administrator, I feel that this is a sales tactic and that there really is no compelling reason for us to ever use the 'enterprise' version. After all, it is Linux and it is open source, and we have enough in-house talent to not need Red Hat support. Why would we ever need or care about a five-year product lifetime? Am I wrong, and if so, could you set us straight? We'd be interested to know what other large organizations have decided to do."

And since it supports extending Java classes and interfaces, it can add sophisticated scripting to an existing Java application.
