There was a prediction released by some US-based Market Anaylsts not long ago. I cannot remember for the life of me where it was (I dont think it was slashdot or Newsforge), but basically they summed up that with the extra options that 2.6 gives, and with the current Reputations of both OS's, but the time that Longhorn is released in 2006, Linux will be on approx. 50-55% of ALL PC's. Not neccesarily as a sole OS, but on it nonetheless. Its a new-comer to the world, but its fast growing, always learning... see ibm.com/open (I think that's it), its about "The Future is Open".. ;-) You have to give credit, Microsoft have developed some fine software in their time, and Windows didnt get to be on 90% of all PC's by sheer luck (Well, some would say that's how it happened, but I doubt it), but some people are becoming unhappy with the way they're heading and want an alternative (Call me 'exhibit a' ;-)). Im hungry... I need some food.... |
