LinTard Delusions

Whatever became of the Lintard Delusions of just 300 days
ago which was that Vista was a complete failure that was going to destroy
Microsoft and that the Lintard OS was going to replace Windows in the coming
year as the new standard in destip computing?

Meanwhile Microsoft profits are up 23% and Windows is now eating away at
what remains of the market share the Lintard OS has left.

Linux Losing Market Share to Windows Server
By Peter Galli
October 25, 2007

Experts say that migrations from Unix to Linux have slowed down
because all the low-hanging fruit has now been picked.

Linux growth in the U.S. x86 server market has, over the past six
quarters, started to falter and reverse its positive course relative
to Windows Server and the market as a whole.

ADVERTISEMENT The annual rate at which Linux is growing in the x86
server space has fallen from around 53 percent in 2003, when Windows
Server growth was in the mid-20 percent range, to a negative 4
percent growth in calendar year 2006, IDC Quarterly Server Tracker
figures show.

Over the same time period, Windows has continued to report positive
annual growth, outpacing the total growth rate in the x86 market by
more than 4 percent in 2006, indicating that Linux has actually lost
market share to Windows Server over this time.

The same holds true for worldwide Linux x86 server shipments, which
dropped from the huge annual growth rate of about 45 percent is 2003
to growth of less than 10 percent in 2006, the IDC figures show.
One of the biggest reasons for this is that the migrations from Unix
to Linux have slowed down markedly.

"We have seen the rate of migration from Unix slow over the past few
quarters," IDC analyst Matt Eastwood told eWEEK. "In my view this is
because much of the low-hanging fruit has been moved and the
applications that remain on Unix are stickier because they are seen
as business critical and more political candidates for migration
overall."

IDC analyst Al Gillen pointed out that the number of servers shipped
does not perfectly equal the number of operating systems in the
market. This is particularly the case with Linux where a substantial
portion of the overall market opportunity comes from deployments
aboard recycled servers, PCs and workstations deployed as servers,
and Linux deployed as a guest operating system.

"This does not contradict any trending taking place on server
hardware," Gillen said.

He added: "But we do need to remember that the Linux software
ecosystem does not track exactly the same as does x86 hardware
shipments."

Linux customers.

Margaret Lewis, the director of commercial solutions for AMD in
Austin, Texas, has also noticed the slowdown in Linux growth over
the past few quarters.

In 2000, Windows comprised about half of the server operating system
market, followed by Unix and Netware at about 17 percent each and
Linux reaching towards 10 percent, she said, noting that today
Windows owns about 70 percent, Linux about 20 percent, with Unix
below 10 percent and Netware barely registering.

"Looking at these large operating system market swings, you could
draw the conclusion that Linux has gotten the 'low-hanging fruit' in
terms of migration," Lewis said.

"Without the larger pool of Unix and NetWare users who are ripe for
migration, there is not quite the level of fuel. You could assume
that Linux is now ready to settle down to a more regular growth
curve representative of a more mature technology."

The fact that Windows has maintained a steady growth rate over this
same time frame could be the result of companies expanding their
Windows-based IT infrastructure to meet the demands of users who
always want to be online, she said.

"Windows-based Web hosting sites are experiencing strong growth, the
Exchange infrastructure is expanding to offer unified messaging and
many small businesses are moving to a real server infrastructure for
basic infrastructure instead of a network of desktops," Lewis said.

the Linux challenge.

Bill Hilf, general manager of Windows Server marketing and platform
strategy at Microsoft in Redmond, Wash., has also noticed these
trends, and says that increased customer adoption of Windows Server
2003 in a broad range of enterprise scenarios is driving significant
growth of that business.

"I spend a lot of time talking with both Linux and Windows customers
and partners, and the feedback that I hear is that, in volume, Linux
is primarily deployed in two workloads-high-performance computing
and as Web servers," Hilf told eWEEK.

"It appears that Linux server growth is moderating considerably and,
while it's certainly still a player, it's not being considered
across the broad range of workloads that Windows Server is, from ERP
to CRM to messaging and collaboration to core infrastructure like
file and print," he said.

But Vista is a failure.

"Microsoft appeared to be opening the Champers over it's record 'profits'.
however the spin aims to conceal what appears to a slowing of sales."

http://www.theinquirer.net/gb/inquir...sta-sales-slow

At http://www.w3schools.com/browsers_os.asp you can see clearly that after a
year Vista has taken almost nothing from the XP stat, with Linux and Mac
coming very close to Vista.
I think the shift is due to the insane ravings of many Linux advocates.

Loons that can read stats are much prefered to those who bury their heads in
the sand. MS is ripping you off mate, they are charging you for crap and
you are daft enough to pay for it. It may be pretty crap, but dog poo with
a ribbon on it is still dog poo.

Its quite clear you have strong opinions so nothing I or anyone else says is
likely to change your thinking. But I find your posts to be quite childish.
Firstly, the name and email address you post under indicate you are of the
same political affiliation that I am a part of; but as far as I'm concerned,
you might as well be a right-wing fundamentalist. Closed-minded individuals
like you are all equally annoying and the world would be better off if they
didn't breed.

Moving on to the issues addressed by your post:
Just as there are loud left-wing and right-wing zealots, there are loud
Linux and Windows zealots. These people do not make up the majority. In fact
the majority of people are free-thinking, and can be persuaded with a strong
argument, as they should be. These highly opinionated zealots will always be
the ones we see and hear though, unfortunately.
Your position is that of a fanboy. Even if running a Linux server would make
implementing a solution quicker, cheaper, and easier, you would still opt
for Windows Server, am I right?

The company I work for runs both Windows and Linux servers, and I firmly
believe we are better off because of it. There are certain things Windows
does very well (SQL Server is an excellent database, and is far superior to
open source alternatives, IMO). There are also things Linux does very well;
for the most part these are things that were not designed to run on Windows.
For example: Subversion for source control, and Trac for project management.
Both free, and 2 of the best solutions available for those purposes, but to
work together they must run with Apache (which you can put on Windows with
enough effort).

Oh, and quoting articles showing Windows market share blobbing over Linux is
only responding to the Linux zealot's assertions that "windows sucks" and
"vista is a complete failure". These people do not deserve a response.
