Linux Is Going Down

Gee, these reactions are so defensive. Face it: some of what Miller said is right. But the planet's big enough for more than one OS. It's an expanding market. The world would be a bit boring if we all looked the same, right? Read between the lines. MSFT wants to take Sun out - not Linux - with a comment like that. Sun is weak in many respects. It's worried that Linux/Intel and MSFT/Intel will squeeze it into a corner, and for good reason. All the anarchists support Linux. All the tweebs support MSFT. Who's left? By getting all the opposition to rally around Linux, Sun is further weakened.
Of course Linux isn't going to go away. It's that simple.
