HP's Switzerland Strategy: Playing in Unix, Linux and Windows Markets
You know, with all this news about folks migrating to Linux, folks
supporting Linux, folks jumping on the OSS bandwagon... it's amazing to
think there are still some Wintrolls who argue that Linux is virtually
unheard of, a bit player, insignificant.
Like any grassroots movement, it started small and slow; like any popular
movement, it gained size and speed; like any successful movement, it
continues to gain.
The people are speaking.
is it a movement? Or is it a *revolution*?
Let's clarify the inportant difference.
A movement, by definition, does something or goes somewhere, then stops.
A revolution just keeps on going. Sometimes it goes at constant speed,
other times, like a bicycle wheel under thrust, it builds momentum, gets
bigger and more powerful, and soon nothing will stop it.
Apologies to J. F. Lawton.
