| Two very different companies shared their success stories with
| open source at LinuxCon in Portland, Oregon on Tuesday. One is
| Sesame Workshop, a relatively small non-profit famous for
| Sesame Street and other strains of educational muppetry. The
| other, Sony Pictures Entertainment, the enormous for-profit
| multinational that owns ancillary rights to your children's
| souls as well as The Karate Kid's.

| Sesame Workshop has only about 400 employees worldwide with
| about 13 working IT, according to Noah Broadwater, vp of the
| company's information services.

| Sutor drew up several possible futures for the Linux
| desktop in the years ahead, including Linux going away
| altogether, one distribution dominating Linux desktops,
| one distro dominating all desktops, Linux reaching
| parity with Microsoft and Apple, and desktop Linux
| disappearing altogether and making the whole issue
| moot.
