It wasnt just Bob though. I worked there for a couple years with a lot
of the original crew... Bob Young, Matt Szulik, Eric Troan, Mark
Ewing, Lisa Sullivan... even have a Red Fedora and a copy of Bob's
book with his autograph :)

If you're interested in how OSS companies grew (especially Red Hat
since they pretty much led the way for the entire OSS Commercial
industry, check out the book "Under the Radar" that Bob wrote about
the early days of Red Hat and Open Source as a viable commercial
model...

Heh... the rule at Red Hat was, Bob would personally autograph your
copy of the book, ONLY after you had read it and correctly answered
the questions he asked you about it...
