“So what’s with Wall Street’s love affair with Linux
companies? It’s all about “mindshare” and buzz, say analysts – not
realistic projections of revenue and profits….“
“Analysts agree that Linux has enormous potential – but not
necessarily as an operating system for personal computers, which is
where Microsoft shines.”
“Instead, Linux will make inroads in specialized servers and
non-PC devices, says Mr. Kusnetzky: “It’s going to become one of
the mainstream options. Does that mean it will kick Microsoft out
of the picture? The answer is no.”
