Not an announcement, exactly, but a rumor. A good rumor.

AOL embraces Linux and Mozilla, plans to drop MS Explorer

Sources inside AOL and Red Hat say AOL is making a major internal switch 
to Linux, and the long-rumored AOL default browser switch from Microsoft's 
Internet Explorer to Mozilla -- or at least Mozilla's Gecko rendering 
engine -- is well under way, but AOL will probably not offer an AOL client 
for Linux in the forseeable future.
