“Linux does not have enough applications for programming,
middleware, and tying together servers, according to Dan Kusnetzky,
program director at IDC. Forrester Research also prognosticates
substantial growth for Linux, estimating that Linux is now used in
almost one third of all Web servers on the Internet.”
“The absence of this software has slowed the adoption of Linux
both as a client and as a server operating environment.”
“If the aisles of LinuxWorld are any indication, that void could
soon be filled. Companies are gunning for winning enterprise
customers from Windows and Unix, touting a bevy of business
hardware, service, support, and software.“
