"On the business side International Data Corp. says Linux will pose a significant threat to Microsoft for market share among server operating systems over the next few years (July 24). In 1999, Linux surpassed Novell and became the #2 server operating system behind Microsoft. With some estimates out there saying Linux had as much as a 35% share of the market, it should make some advocates smile. In a different light, we've also seen reports that say that Linux's market share only accounted for 8% of server revenue. That may mean little or nothing important to some of us, but it has overtones that threaten the viability of this operating system."
