Linux market share leaps by 212%

Market share for the Linux operating system surged
by 212 percent in 1998, a growth rate that
outpaced Windows NT, NetWare, Unix, and all others
in the server market, according to a new study.

In the past year, Linux leapt from 6.8 percent to
an estimated 17.2 percent, according to a study
from International Data Corporation.The number of
copies of Linux shipped to customers more than
tripled from 1997 to 1998. The massive growth
spurt results from anti-Microsoft sentiment,
strong performance, and low pricing, IDC analyst
Dan Kusnetzky said. In addition, Linux can be
narrowly tailored to users' needs, since sections
of code can be modified or deleted as necessary,
unlike other operating systems.

Clinton... tss.

12 hours ago, the US and UK started an attack on
Iraq. (...) Of relevance is that tomorrow, Clinton
was to be impeached since most of the congress
members wanted him impeached. Indeed, the Senate
told the Whitehouse that he would be impeached
tomorrow unless he bombed Iraq.
