Linux will win and Micro$oft will lose. So
sit back and watch it happen.

That's right, Linux will be on every desktop
and server and you can damn me all to hell
for saying so, but that is how it will be.
The all American Dollar rules. What becomes
a standard is determined by economics
( the cost of the product).
There was a time when you could get Windows 3.1,
for $30.00 and that is when Micro$oft
became a standard, it was'nt because of
superior technology.
The genie (GPL, Linux, Open-Souce) was let out
of the bottle long time ago and as time passes
it will consume everything. If you ask me, it
reached critical mass in 1998. The genie can not
be put back into the bottle. And so the
next business/technology model has
already been determined.

Why?
Because:
1)Lower Cost ( The Linux Kernel doesn't cost anything)
2)Open-source Kernel
3)The "GPL, Linux, Open-Source Kernel"
is the perfect technology foundation
for Manufacturing and the masses
because people, businesses, universities,
governments contribute to it.
4) Linux can scale up or down
5) Linux is hardware agnostic
6) "Linux, Open-Source" can and
     will morph into future tecnologies
     that will benefit all.

If your not using Linux and your
still using MS windows, you better
wake up and smell the coffee
because the world has changed.
