I was simply showing how miniscule these Linux companies are when compared to Sun, since the article infers they will lead to their downfall, when in reality Sun could buy any of them with the stroke of the pen. If all you can do in response is call names, maybe you're better suited on one if the typical Linux sites than this one.
The article infers what? The article talks about high end competition from IBM and low end from Linux. You, on the other hand have made a career on free republic saying that Linux is the driving force behind UNIX market share losses. Here are just a few samples..
Linux was created by a foreigner so that he wouldn't have to pay the US software companies for our products. And many years later it is now stealing market share from US products it originally attempted to clone. -- Golden Eagle
SCO, they may be headed to bankruptcy. Just like SGI, and several others before open source has finished scavaging the rest of the old Unix vendors. -- Golden Eagle
[OSS Makes Money] Only at the expense of our traditional software companies, who lose a lot more than the open source cloners ever make up with their freeware fakes. -- Golden Eagle
It's already eaten through much of the fat profits of the Unix companies, and left them suing one another over where all the money went. Silicon Graphics, Cray, SCO, all shadows of their former selves, and IBM and Sun laying off tens of thousands the last couple of years. -- Golden Eagle
If the remaining Unix stalwarts Solaris and OSX get consumed by Linux, there won't be much of anything seperate from Microsoft's influence. -- Golden Eagle
As Linux grows in strength due to user growth primarily outside the U.S., those companies are now suffering as they are being pushed into a "service only" income model instead of their previous "sales and service" income model. -- Golden Eagle
