This article is completely focused on Linux as a desktop
solution. In that arena, I have to admit that Linux is not
ready. As much as I would love to run Linux on my desk,
it is impossible or far too time consuming to get the software
that I need to run my business (Please do not start a flame
war on this).
He states this point:
Compared to its sliver of the desktop OS market, Linux
garnered a much larger 23 percent of the server market
in 2002.
But does not expand on it because it is not the focus
of the article. Personally, I belive that the server
market is where Linux is the best available solution and
I challenge anyone to try to tell me otherwise.
So, given the narrow focus of the article, I think what
he says is pretty accurate. It is slanted, but not too
much. Definitely good to start seeing a shift in the media.
To whomever posted the original link to this mailing
list: thank you for telling us about it.
Thanks,
Neil
