Comments from Bob Young, chairman and Matthew Szulik, CEO:

Eric's experiences with Netscape and other leaders that helped propel corporations to the Internet are a tremendous asset to Red Hat.  His insight will help Red Hat continue accelerating the adoption of Linux as an Internet and enterprise service platform and Red Hat as the preferred provider of Linux software and services to corporations worldwide.

Bob Young, wearing a Red Hat (but ask him about the socks!) is on the left, and Matthew Szulik our marvelously hard-working CEO is on the right.
