Gartner Predicts Linux Gains In 2005

Posted by timothy on from the fickle-like-the-wind dept.

An anonymous reader submits "According to news in The Australian, Gartner research is predicting big gains for Linux from Microsoft in 2005, including desktop adoption in the public sector and banks. In fact, Gartner is also predicting that '40 percent of large financial services organizations will have deployed Linux' by 2005. Seems a little optimistic to me, but it is better than predictions the other way!"

    Does anyone still pay attention to Gartner?

    All they are doing is annoying Microsoft so that they can get their monthly paycheck by producing a reverse statement.

    They deserve no respect.
