IBM has a lot OSs: OS/390, z/OS, OS/2, OS400, AIX... Is Linux the answer to Sun, a unique platform for all IBM server class hardware ?
I understand IBM's efforts with Linux (and other open source software as Apache) but is this philosophy coherent with IBM business? Today is the operating system, tomorrow the database, where IBM is leader. Then? Will IBM sell only services?
Or are these "Open Source gadgets" only starting points to IBM more complex solutions?
