Corel Linux sale 'best thing' for OS, claims exec

Corel's recently announced spin-off of its Linux distribution is the "best thing for Linux", according to Rene Schmidt, Executive VP for Corel's Linux Product Group. Of course, it could also be said to be a very good thing for the company as well, writes Bruce Tober.

That sounds to us like the company finally realised that what Linux-on-the-desktop needs are more, better apps, not just another distro. Hence the decision to drop the latter to focus on the former.
