Two articles from Dallas Morning News today!

In the print edition, there is a block of text on the Front Page
of the paper, with a nice graphic (See www.dallasnews.com for the graphic)
and a pointer to the article within.

Inside, Linux dominates the “Personal Technology” section.

corridor here, Unix has a firm grip on the market, leaving the door
wide open for Linux.
