Declare victory and go home
,----[ Quote ]
| Sometimes I want to declare victory and go home. Of course, that's usually an
| admission of defeat, but I really think that with news like Verizon Embraces
| Linux, that the penetration of Open Source into every sector of
| computer-using society (which would be ... everything) is inevitable.

ASUS installing Linux on tens of millions of motherboards and tens of millions
of Brazilian kids to use Linux was probably better (and recent) news.
Open Source in 2013

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.
