Red Hat and Mandrake are cutting support for older versions of their Linux distributions... The results will be a security nightmare for the Internet.

hehe - haven't the linux holy fanatics been complaining about MS's support policy's for years? (god forbid they upgrade to 2000/XP and soon 2003, they like complaining about how poorly written Windows 3.1 and 95/98/NT is).

Geez, funny how these things come back to bite you guys in the ass. 12 months, that's absolutely terrible compared to MS's lifelines of multiple years!

I see a new trend occurring here which is really quite amusing... and its called hypocritical FUD.
