    You list devices which have no need to interact with the internet, and also one which is obsolete jewelry for most (watch). "Internet of Things" appeals to shitheads with more money than common sense, internet enabling every glass, lamp and toaster is a goal people with sense do not seek.

    completely wrong, big infrastructure will have different groups of web servers with queries sent to them by proxies that split on context root and other criteria, and those groups will deal with various middleware and database servers.

    assertions without proof. Running 30 virtual machines in one physical blade is the norm, virtualization helps over no virtualization.

    Those other solutions are useless to a business that requires a supported OS for there applications.
