    They have enough money to buy any private company. The most usefull
is RH because it has the full control over systemd and most other
distros are now dependant on systemd. All the Linux community is
strongly dependant on RH, not only via systemd, but because RH is the
most important developper in Linux, including in the kernel. And RH is
already developping the bizness model of making profit out of Linux.

    I'm convinced systemd is a major step delibaretely made by RH in
view of its resale to M$.
