It's not earth-shattering news and most Linux veterans would probably exclaim "D-uh," but I was genuinely excited when I found out a very prominent Taiwan-Chinese hardware device manufacturer runs routine quality control tests using RHEL 6.2, Ubuntu Oneiric Ocelot, openSUSE 12.1, and Fedora Verne - all very new releases from each Linux team. Surprisingly, although the company tests hardware using both RHEL and bleeding-edge Fedora, they only run openSUSE 12.1 and not its commercial version, SUSE Linux Enterprise. It's a curious approach considering that SUSE proudly claims they're the most widely used commercial version of Linux used in China.
There must be some genuine Linux believers over there to run Linux distributions as testing environments (let alone four major versions). Now, the big question is . . . What do they think of Unity and Gnome 3?
