 AOL in Talks to Buy Linux Distributor Red Hat

 WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Media and Internet titan AOL Time Warner Inc. (NYSE:AOL
 - news) is in negotiations to acquire Red Hat Inc.(Nasdaq:RHAT - news), a distributor of
 the alternative computer operating system Linux (news - web sites), the Washington Post
 reported citing unidentified sources familiar with the matter.

 The talks were fluid and it was unclear how much AOL, which runs the biggest U.S.
 Internet service provider and the second-largest U.S. cable television system, would pay
 for Red Hat, the newspaper said.
