Gartner: Linux Servers Booming

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the all-the-rage-with-the-kids-these-days dept.

Tarantolato writes "According to a recent Gartner report, low-end Linux server shipments grew significantly in the first quarter of 2004. Part of this may be due to the comeback of the relational database market in 2003, where Linux growth was especially strong, while Windows growth was weaker. There is mixed news for Sun, who saw growing shipments but declining revenues in Q1 of 2004."

  1. Cheap Linux Servers - Gentoo Linux by the_oak · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I use linux for my servers as well, but it took me almost a day to find cheep hosting. And i could not even find what I was actualy looking for: Gentoo Linux Servers and a low pricing. I found a Debian server, 30$/month, very nice. And I installed Gentoo on it, cross-atlantic (a bit scary rebooting the first time :). If you use serverpronto and want Gentoo on your debian server there, I will be happy to send you the details of this adventure.
