    I thought it was common knowledge, google did a talk about it at UDS.They give their employees the choice of Goobuntu, WIndows or OSX.Its based on hardy.

    If someone tells you to sudo rm -rf ANYTHING, then DO NOT DO IT!

    Don't run any command with rm in it unless you know EXACTLY what you're doing.

    Pizzahut also use Ubuntu(Dapper LTS) my friend confirms, he works for them doing their online services apps. I think you'l find quiet a few companies using Linux of some sort, it just doesn't get news.

    Yes, well, I have a friend who built an entire business selling computer services to large retailers using exclusively freebsd.

    He just sold the company for $5M.

    Google using Linux is not headline news.
