    Dear Linux Users,

            I'm pleased to announce jointly with Microsoft(tm)(r) Corporation
    release of Linux 2000 Professional Enterprise.

            As you probably already know I'm busy with my family and I already
    have full-time job with Transmeta. Thus, it has been necessary for me to
    look for some responsible partner who would help me develop Linux.

            After extensive search, I have decided upon Microsoft Corporation
    which has been known on market for long time from their high quality
    software.

            Thus the upcoming Linux 2.4.0 will become Linux 2000(tm)(r).

            Pricing will be determined at later time. However, I would like to
    take opportunity now to remind people who have unlicensed version of Linux
    to delete it from hard disk and then wait until official release of Linux
    2000(tm)(r) will become available.

            Effective April 1st 2000, midnight, all older versions of Linux
    are illegal under Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

                            Linus
