yep Elv, i'm dreaming along with you ... thanks for the dreamlist and for getting 'em so nicely organized on yahoo.... can't own 'em all, oh well.
CORL just did me real nice it gave a one week doubler - got in Monday & out this morning (wshew) A Nicely Nicely. corel.com & corelcity.com shows its doubleplusgoods. Mite hop back on again soon "Do It Again" -Q) how soon?
A) depends if pps goes up or down Monday, of course :) !
And corel's momo was almost peanuts next to a couple those other good ones on that list!
So the Linux os should be applicable for the new inexpensive internet appliances (you can't even really call'em pc's) though as i understand it they'll be working ok for some applications by utilizing remote data storage and onsite mechanics instead of installed software in the pc's down the road a piece.
Linux is probably key to remote functionality needed to make the minigizmos do all the tricks they should be capable of, but really aren't just yet.
Linux = Mellow Yellow (it's bound to be the very next phrase).
Best 2U,
Joana

"Ottawa is definitely the Linux capital of the world"

ottawacitizen.com

Investor interest in new stock issues
bearing the scent of Linux will put the
spotlight on at least five Ottawa-area
companies in the near future. Bert Hill
reports.

Bert Hill
The Ottawa Citizen - December 11, 1999

Watch out. The Penguin is
storming Ottawa.

At least five companies are
developing products based on
the Linux operating system that
has galvanized world stock
markets in the past month.

And at least one, Rebel.com Inc.
plans to go public by next March.
And yesterday's 24-per-cent
drop in Corel Corp.'s share
price is not expected to slow the
action.

The penguin is the marketing
symbol for Linux, an
open-source operating system
widely seen as challenging
Microsoft's domination of
desktop computer operating
systems.

The local companies are
working on Linux-based
products for office computers
and for future information
appliances.

Rebel.com Inc. has sold more
than 1,000 small-office
computer systems based on
Linux.

"We're trying not to get
distracted by all the Linux hype,
though it's hard not to notice
what has happened to our competitors' stock," Rebel's president,
Michael Mansfield, said yesterday. Investors' demand for stock has
exploded for new issues of companies that compete with Rebel in
the server market based on Linux. Servers are central office
computers that handle internal networks and external traffic to the
Internet.

Rebel originally planned to go public next summer but now hopes
to meet stock market regulatory standards quicker.

Shares of Cobalt Networks Inc. jumped six times on issue in early
November to reach $128 U.S., giving the California-based
company a market capitalization of $3.5 billion. The stock was
trading at $135 yesterday.

And VA Linux Systems, also of California, did even better this
week when its stock jumped eight time on issue to reach $239
U.S., giving the company a market capitalization of $9.5 billion.

"We're just as excited about the response we're getting from
customers and markets around the world," said Mr. Mansfield.
"We're getting great results in independent lab tests against our
competitors' products."

Corel Corp. owns 25 per cent of Rebel. Corel stock has jumped
500 per cent this year on the strength of a new Linux operating
system that is integrated with Corel and Windows applications.

"Ottawa is definitely the Linux capital of the world," Corel Corp.
chief executive Michael Cowpland said yesterday. "We've got
more companies making real sales involving Linux than just about
anywhere else."

Yesterday, Rebel announced an alliance with Linmor Technologies,
a tiny Bells Corners networking company whose shares jumped
more than 500 per cent this week after it announced it had adapted
its network management software to work on the Linux operating
system.

Rebel and Linmor said they will work on products that help
telecommunications and Internet service providers using Linux.

Both Corel and Linmor stocks fell yesterday as investors tempered
the Linux frenzy. Corel fell $13.95 or 24 per cent to close at $44.
Linmor fell back 48 cents or 19 per cent to $2.

Corel was the heaviest-traded stock on Nasdaq, with 47 million
shares changing hands. It was also the third- biggest loser on a
percentage basis.

Mr. Cowpland said, "Our stock is very volatile because we are a
favorite of day traders."

Despite the correction, both stocks had great weeks: Corel rose
85 per cent and Linmor 440 per cent.

OE/ONE.com, a new company led by Eid Eid, former chief
technology vice-president at Corel, expects to announce new
financing and product plans early in the new year.

Mr. Eid and a group of developers have been working for six
months on a new "operating environment" that will be sandwiched
between Linux and a future generation of devices ranging from
handheld organizers and e-mail readers to television set-top boxes
and personal computers.

"We plan to make it as easy as possible for consumers to use the
Internet for entertainment, information and communication," Mr. Eid
said.

"There will be no opening screen to get through. Customers will
operate products using our operating environment as easily as they
run a (Sony) Playstation (video game machine)."

Mr. Eid started working on his new company, which will be based
in Hull, six months before the Linux wave hit.

"We could see two years ago at Corel Computer (a company that
was folded into Rebel) that Linux was the breath of fresh air the
industry needed," Mr. Eid said.

"It is robust and reliable and its provides more opportunities than
working with proprietary systems like Windows CE (a variation on
Windows aimed at small computing devices)."

The other local players in the Linux market are Newlix Corp., which
is writing software for Linux-powered servers, and the Puffin Group,
which is developing Linux software for high-end Hewlett Packard
servers.

Newlix Corp. founders Jean-Serge Gagnon and John Hansen hope
to enter the Linux market through a royalty deal with IPC Direct, a
major Canadian manufacturer of low-priced personal computers.

At the Puffin Group, Christopher Beard and Alex deVries
announced earlier this year that they are working on a Linux
operating system for Hewlett-Packard processors that drive
high-powered workstations used by engineers.

Linux's development was begun in 1991 by Finnish computer
programming student Linus Torvalds.

Mr. Torvalds made the program and the underlying source code
freely available over the Internet, challenging other programmers to
attempt to make it better.

Dataquest, a U.S. research firm, estimates that sales of network
appliances to small businesses will reach $1.6 billion U.S. in 2003
-- up from $200 million U.S. this year.

LINMOR and Rebel.com Announce Strategic Alliance:

LINMOR to bundle their LINUX-based Network Management System
with Rebel.com's NetWinder to capitalize on the Telco and Internet Service Provider (ISPs) market.

December 10, 1999

OTTAWA, ONTARIO--Rebel.com Inc., a leading supplier of LINUX(r)
and UNIX enterprise solutions, and LINMOR Technologies (CDNX:
LIR), a leading developer of network management systems for
managing the Internet network infrastructure, today announced that
they are working together on a hardware-software network
management system solution that will offer significant savings to
the Telco and Internet Service Provider (ISPs) market.

"We wanted to combine our network management software with a
proven hardware system," said Tom Morocz, vice president of
business development at LINMOR. "Rebel.com's NetWinder offers us
the ultimate solution to bundle and sell our LINUX-based NEBULA
network management system."

LINMOR recently announced that they have ported their entire
NEBULA network management software product line to the LINUX
operating system. Bundling this software with the NetWinder will
allow LINMOR to target the solution to both Telcos and ISPs with a
more cost-effective hardware alternative. This is particularly
important to those Telcos and ISPs who are entering the rapidly
emerging Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) and Internet over cable
markets, where the typical network is comprised of millions of
objects that need to be managed. The savings come from the fact
that the Netwinder costs a fraction of what traditional UNIX
systems cost to purchase and maintain, at the same time offering
exceptional performance and reliability. The LINUX solution to be
offered by LINMOR and Rebel.com will now enable carriers to
cost-effectively manage this new breed of very large, complex
networks at a fraction of their current hardware costs.

"Up until now, NEBULA could not be deployed as widely in a
carrier's network as they would have liked due to the high cost of
the UNIX systems required to run the software," said Morocz. "A
LINUX-based solution, particularly on the Netwinder, offers our
customers tremendous hardware cost-savings. By lowering hardware
costs for our customers, they then, in turn, can now afford to use
our software throughout their network."

"We are pleased to be working with LINMOR on this initiative,"
said Michael Mansfield, president of Rebel.com. "LINMOR has a
proven track record in the Telco and ISP markets -- two very key
markets for Rebel.com. Working closely with LINMOR will allow us
increased access to these customer bases with a full solution for
their network management needs.

In addition to utilizing the NetWinder for their network
management solution, LINMOR will also have access to the marketing
and engineering expertise which Rebel.com has demonstrated in the
LINUX marketplace, as well as the substantial reseller channels
they have in place.

"Working with Rebel.com will allow us to tap into their expertise
in the LINUX arena to further penetrate this exciting market,"
said Morocz.
