Sux when you wrote the post, read it twice, reply to someones post to say you didn’t write merger, and still don’t see the word “merger” I stand corrected, and so is the post. Thanks for the insight. LOL!

I’m referring to your blog post “It seemed that this merger came out of the blue, but I for one am very happy about it.”

It’s not a merger when one company is bought by another one.

Merger is when two company decide and agree to merge into one.

It doesn’t matter whether HP & Compaq’s merger end up good or bad, it’s irrelevant.

If Microsoft buy a company that my friend own, is that a merger? No, that means Microsoft acquired my friend’s company.

I don’t know where said “merger”, but you’re entitled to your opinion JBoss makes a bunch of excellent products and I have some confort in the fact the RedHat shares a similar vision. As far as HP and Compaq, how’s that working out these days? Remember that awesome thing they came out with last year?

It’s not a merger. JBoss is a fat and loud insect acquired by RedHat.

HP and Compaq, that’s a merger.
