Ten years of IBM mainframe Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Back in February 1999, IBM announced it
| would work with Red Hat to support Linux.
| By May 2000, Linux moved from being an
| experiment on mainframes to being a fully
| supported option. And in 2001, IBM
| announced it was spending a billion bucks
| that year on Linux. It wasn't that big an
| expense; as Bill Zeitler, IBM's senior
| vice president and group executive for
| eServer at the time, explained, "We've
| recouped most of it in the first year in
| sales of software and systems."

Evolution of Linux computing and its implications
,----[ Quote ]
| Today Linux is acknowledged to be the
| ideal operating system amongst programmers
| and application intense users. This is not
| to say that UNIX solutions have developed
| problems, but simply that Linux continues
| to be increasingly capable of doing the
| task that has typically been expected of
| Unix, and in many instances does so more
| effectively and efficiently.

| "Forty percent of servers run Windows, 60 percent run Linux," he said. "How
| are we doing? Forty is less than 60, so I don't like it. ... We have some
| work to do."
