No, giving up the desktop is giving up on everything. Sun's executives made that mistake once before. How did Sun get to the datacenter? How did Windows get to the datacenter? How did Linux get to the datacenter? We all know the answer. A year ago the report would have attracted a chorus of "rah, Linix, rah!". Now almost every other bit of the thread mentions Sun/Solaris and/or the fact it runs on the cheap hardware too. And in a favorable light. So we've went from: Gartner says Something negative about Linux: Gartner are idiots Gartner says Something positive about Linux: rah, rah to: Gartner says Something positive about Linux: Gartner has no clue about UNIX. Success, I'd say, and mindshare. Casper _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
