Medjutim, ovih dana se desava nesto jako zanimljivo:

Experts say that migrations from Unix to Linux have slowed down because all the low-hanging fruit has now been picked.
The annual rate at which Linux is growing in the x86 server space has fallen from around 53 percent in 2003, when Windows Server growth was in the mid-20 percent range, to a negative 4 percent growth in calendar year 2006, IDC Quarterly Server Tracker figures show.
Over the same time period, Windows has continued to report positive annual growth, outpacing the total growth rate in the x86 market by more than 4 percent in 2006, indicating that Linux has actually lost market share to Windows Server over this time.
Experts say that migrations from Unix to Linux have slowed down because all the low-hanging fruit has now been picked.
"We have seen the rate of migration from Unix slow over the past few quarters," IDC analyst Matt Eastwood told eWEEK. "In my view this is because much of the low-hanging fruit has been moved and the applications that remain on Unix are stickier because they are seen as business critical and more political candidates for migration overall."
Drugim recima, Linux je ocigledno uspeo da pohvata "low hanging fruits" na pricu o niskoj ceni i Unix kompatibilnosti - ali je ocigledno udario u zid, jer za ostatak trzista ne predstavlja "value add" - a Windows Server ocigledno belezi jako veliki rast i to, ovog puta, na stetu Linuxa.
Sta li je to? :-)

Windows Server Woos Linux Customers
Wooed by compelling application ecosystems, performance and cost, several large enterprise Linux customers have begun slowly migrating back to Windows Server, eWEEK reporting has found.
Tja... izgleda Linux i nije bas tako idealno Enterprise resenje kao sto Linuxovci reklamiraju ;-)
