| Open source is said to be about scratching your particular itches - and I've
| been working my butt off for the last several months along with a small,
| select team of developers doing just that.
|
| All our hard work have so far resulted in a very experimental linux
| distribution that's definitely not ready for users yet (or even developers)
| but does have quite a few interesting ideas and features.

Linux Market to Triple by 2012
,----[ Quote ]
| Analyst firm Research and Markets has just put out a project on Linux-based
| server and client hardware sales, and is projecting that the market will more
| than triple between 2007 and 2012.
|
| A market for a platform is not the same as an ecosystem for it, which is much
| larger in that it includes the cost of people and third-party software and
| services for the code that runs atop the platform. So the R&M Linux market
| numbers might seem a little small. In any event, the consultancy pegged the
| Linux product and services market for Linux running on servers and clients
| (but not embedded systems) at $2.4 billion in 2007.
