“Is Linux for real? Maybe, if vendor support is any

The open-source-code operating system is expected to get
another boost this week as Lotus Development Corp. and Allaire
Corp. unveil versions of their products for Linux.

“At Lotusphere Berlin, Lotus, Cambridge, Mass., is expected to
debut Lotus Notes/Domino for Linux, to ship next month, company
sources said. And Allaire, Cambridge, will unveil ColdFusion 4.5
today, with native support for Linux as well as support for
Enterprise Java Beans, the company said. The product is slated to
ship this quarter.”
