Computing from the bottom up
,----[ Quote ]
| Linux (and, more broadly, open source in general) is perhaps the canonical
| example of this trend. In some respects, Linux adoption just mimicked past
| adoption patterns for distributed computing in general--from Windows NT
| servers to PCs and even Unix in the early days. However, open source licenses
| make backdoor sourcing one big quantum step easier. Indeed, the basic idea
| that open source licensing helps to build a developer and user base that can
| then be monetized when the software goes into production underpins a lot of
| the thinking around business models associated with open source.

Laptops and Desktops running Linux continue to sell out

| When I decided to buy an Asus Eee I had a hard time finding one. Amazon was
| sold out. Buy.com was sold out. Many of the smaller websites I found were
| also sold out, and claimed they would be in stock again on some future date.
