*BSD is dyingIt is now official. Netcraft had confirmed: *BSD is dying
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered *BSD community when IDC confirmed that *BSD market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which plainly states that *BSD has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. *BSD is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict *BSD's future. The hand writing is on the wall: *BSD faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for *BSD because *BSD is dying. Things are looking very bad for *BSD. As many of us are already aware, *BSD continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.
FreeBSD is the most endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core developers. The sudden and unpleasant departures of long time FreeBSD developers Jordan Hubbard and Mike Smith only serve to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any doubt: FreeBSD is dying.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
OpenBSD leader Theo states that there are 7000 users of OpenBSD. How many users of NetBSD are there? Let's see. The number of OpenBSD versus NetBSD posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 NetBSD users. BSD/OS posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of NetBSD posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of BSD/OS. A recent article put FreeBSD at about 80 percent of the *BSD market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 FreeBSD users. This is consistent with the number of FreeBSD Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and so on, FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by BSDI who sell another troubled OS. Now BSDI is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that *BSD has steadily declined in market share. *BSD is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If *BSD is to survive at all it will be among OS dilettante dabblers. *BSD continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save BSD from death at this point in time. For all practical purposes, *BSD is dead.

The Results are in, it's now official --Netcraft confirms: Linux is dying
Yet another crippling bombshell hit the beleaguered Linux community when recently MSNBC confirmed that Linux accounts for less than a fraction of 27 percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of the latest Netcraft survey which plainly states that Linux has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. Linux is collapsing in complete disarray, as further exemplified by failing dead last in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict Linux's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Linux faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Linux because Linux is dying. Things are looking very bad for Linux. As many of us are already aware, Linux continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood. TurboLinux Linux is the most endangered of them all, having lost $4.8 billion last quarter. The constant and unpleasant conflict between long time Linux advocates Linus Tordvalds and Richard Stallman only serve to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any question doubt: TurboLinux Linuxis continuing its slow downward spiral into darkness.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
Debian leader Theo states that there are 7000 users of Debian. How many users of Slackware are there? Let's see. The number of Debian versus Slackware posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 Slackware users. BSD/OS posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of Slackware posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of BSD/OS. A recent article put TurboLinux at about 80 percent of the Linux market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 TurboLinux users. This is consistent with the number of TurboLinux Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of SCO, abysmal sales and so on, OpenServer went out of business and was taken over by Caldera who sell another troubled OS. Now Caldera is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that Linux has steadily declined in market share. Linux is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If Linux is to survive at all it will be among OS hobbyist dabblers. Linux continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, Linux is dead.

Anonymous posting is dyingIt is official; Slashdot confirms: Anonymous posting is dying
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered Anonymous posting community when IDC confirmed that on-topic Anonymous posting has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all comments. Coming on the heels of a recent Slashcode change which plainly forces Trolls To post Anonymously at 0 rather than at -1, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. Anonymous posting is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last [samag.com] in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Karma Whore to predict Anonymous posting's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Anonymous posting faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Anonymous posting because Anonymous posting is dying. Things are looking very bad for Anonymous posting. As many of us are already aware, Anonymous posting Trolls continue to waste time. Mod points flow like a river of blood.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
Troll leader Jamie McCarthy states that there are 7000 Trolls. How many on-topic AC's are there? Let's see. The number of Troll posts versus on-topic comments posted at 0 is roughly in ratio of 50 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/50 = 140 on-topic AC's. AC's that get modded over +2 are about half of the volume of on-topic posts. Therefore there are about 70 slashbot AC's. A recent article put Crapflooders at about 80 percent of the Anonymous posting volume. Therefore there are (7000+140+70)*4 = 28840 Crapflooders. This is consistent with the number of -1 posts.
Due to the troubles of VA Software, abysmal sales and so on, OSDN went out of business and was taken over by AOL who run other troubled websites. Now AOL is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that Anonymous posting has steadily declined in signal to noise ratio. Anonymous posting is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If Anonymous posting is to survive at all it will be among the slashdot janitors. Anonymous posting continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, Anonymous posting is dead.

A recent article put FreeBSD at about 80 percent of the *BSD market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 FreeBSD users. This is consistent with the number of FreeBSD Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and so on, FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by BSDI who sell another troubled OS. Now BSDI is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that *BSD has steadily declined in market share. *BSD is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If *BSD is to survive at all it will be among OS dilettante dabblers. *BSD continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, *BSD is dead.

*BSD is dying by poopbotIt is now official. Netcraft confirms: *BSD is dying
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered *BSD community when IDC confirmed that *BSD market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which plainly states that *BSD has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. *BSD is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict *BSD's future. The hand writing is on the wall: *BSD faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for *BSD because *BSD is dying. Things are looking very bad for *BSD. As many of us are already aware, *BSD continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.
FreeBSD is the most endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core developers. The sudden and unpleasant departures of long time FreeBSD developers Jordan Hubbard and Mike Smith only serve to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any doubt: FreeBSD is dying.

OpenBSD leader Theo states that there are 7000 users of OpenBSD. How many users of NetBSD are there? Let's see. The number of OpenBSD versus NetBSD posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 NetBSD users. BSD/OS posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of NetBSD posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of BSD/OS. A recent article put FreeBSD at about 80 percent of the *BSD market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 FreeBSD users. This is consistent with the number of FreeBSD Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and so on, FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by BSDI who sell another troubled OS. Now BSDI is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that *BSD has steadily declined in market share. *BSD is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If *BSD is to survive at all it will be among OS dilettante dabblers. *BSD continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, *BSD is dead.

Coming on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which plainly states that Netware has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. Novell is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict Novell's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Novell faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Novell because Netware is dying. Things are looking very bad for Novell. As many of us are already aware, Netware continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.
Corel Netware is the most endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core developers. The sudden and unpleasant departures of long time Corel developers Jordan Hubbard and Mike Smith only serve to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any doubt: Netware is dying.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
Netware Admin leader Theo states that there are 7000 users of Netware Admin. How many users of ConsoleOne are there? Let's see. The number of Netware Admin versus ConsoleOne posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 ConsoleOne users. Corel Netware posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of ConsoleOne posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of Corel Netware. A recent article put Novell Netware at about 80 percent of the Netware market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 Netware users. This is consistent with the number of Netware Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Word Perfect, abysmal sales and so on, Corel is going out of business and will probably be taken over by Novell who sell another troubled OS. Now Novell is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that Netware has steadily declined in market share. Novell is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If Netware is to survive at all it will be among OS dilettante dabblers. Netware continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, Netware is dead.

Re:*BSD is dyingIt is official. Netcraft now confirms: *WHO is dying
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered *WHO community when IDC confirmed that *WHO market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 0 percent of all concerts. Coming on the heels of a recent Live versus Dead survey which plainly states that *WHO has lost more members, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. *WHO is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last in the recent WHO Admin comprehensive vital signs test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict *WHO's future. The hand writing is on the wall: *WHO faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for *WHO because *WHO is dying. Things are looking very bad for *WHO. As many of us are already aware, *WHO continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.
EntwistleWHO is the most endangered of them all, having lost 100% of his life. There can no longer be any doubt: *WHO is dying.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
WHO leader Pete Townsand states that there are 4 members of *WHO. How live many members of *WHO are there? Let's see. The number of live members of *WHO versus dead ones is roughly 1 to 1. Therefore there are about 4/2 = 2 living *WHO members. This is consistent with the number of *WHO posts.
