Are you starting to feel stupid yet?

Yes. From those quotes, picked have little to do with the contents of the articles and present a distorted view. Just reading the titles is enough for most reasonable people. You know, titles like "Wall Street Embraces Linux" If Merrill Lynch and four other major trading houses using Linux for everything, and the NYSE using it for transactions is not enough for you, I'm not sure what is. The logical progression from experimentation in 2001 to adoption in 2003 by those banks and trading houses should not be a big surprise to you.

Get back under your bridge. No one legitimate posts AC.
