| Since 1995, ABAS has been supporting Linux on the server side and to-date

These installations probably won't get counted in Microsoft's IDC 'studies' on
server growth. Other companies are expanding to accommodate the need for
Linux:

| Okay, now lets tie this all back in together. Novell claimed several months 
| back in a video ad that Desktop Linux users accounted for upwards of 
| 30,000,000 different people. That's 30 million. Recent statements made by 
| some Novell representatives indicate that they expect there are upwards of 
| 50,000,000 Desktop Linux users. Microsoft has never contested the number of 
| Desktop Linux users, and if anything the deal Microsoft signed with Novell 
| was tacit agreement that Microsoft believed those numbers to be accurate.
