Too bad VLC doesn't play it. MPC does the job on Windows. @mehul – Oh okay, hope it makes it big, I like Debian :D

And the linux version of the real player really sucks. @harsh you checked codecs from mplayer's site? I guess they have some codecs to play rm files too. Maybe those will help.

Already Ubuntu has pulled in such a huge community under the noses of those two in a short time. And if there's a community out there for it, that community will promote the distro. So, enterprises are likely to accept it. Also, if they make trained professionals available we might see quite a lot of servers migrating from RHL to Ubuntu. And as I said before OSS industry still has enough room to accomodate about half a dozen more competitors. Maybe no one else will agree to this but this is what I feel. Nope it won’t.

And it feels a bit outdated unless you use testing repositories. I don't think you have Debain certifications but Ubuntu's prolly coming out with one.
