From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I understand what you're saying and I don't think you're missing anything. SLES, CIQ, Oracle are trying to come out as winners here but they're cutting off their noses to spite their own faces. I can't understand why any of these companies thought that this was a good message to send to anyone.
Can you imagine being in SLES sales? "Yeah, we attempt to clone our competitor's product and we promise you that we can support it better than they can."
SLES sales: "You really trust IBM not to bend you over? Yes, we accept Visa or Mastercard."
