Businessweek Covers Linuxworld

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the places-to-be dept.

MadFarmAnimalz writes "BusinessWeek has coverage of Linuxworld up, and it makes interesting reading in places. Amongst things touched upon are the open-source business model, how vendors will be tempted into locking in customers into their offerings, and other things." I'll be out there tomorrow for the Golden Penguin Bowl, as well as judging exhibitors. Busy day.

    Apple chose BSD over Linux

    LNUX is worth a few pennies and in danger of being de-listed off the NASDAQ stock exchange

    MCSEs are getting more jobs than Linux sysadmins these days

    Apple chose Trolltech/KDE over the Gecko/Linux renderer

    OS X already won. Any geek or scientist worth their salt who wants a UNIX home computer already has an iBook or a G4.

    YOU FAIL IT! This is the Anonymous Coward that made the first post (And the first reply to the first post), and I am just here to inform you that YOU FAIL IT! You are not funny, go shoot yourself in the face! It would be awesome to see your own brain's blood, wouldn't it, well you would have to get a mirror so you could see it rush out of the new smoking hole in the back of your cranium!
