From the perspective of a software industry insider, I believe this company is at the forefront of a movement toward open source and away from proprietary vendors. Red Hat is well-positioned to benefit, both in the short and long term and appears to have figured out a successful business model for marketing an open source solution. In addition, this economic downturn may actually accelerate profits for Red Hat.
