Red Hat: We Won't Beat Windows
WinInfo | at | by Mike
Speaking of problems in Linux land, Red Hat Chairman Bob Young said this week that he's amended his position about Linux beating Windows on the desktop. He used to tell open-source crowds that Linux would never replace Windows on the desktop, but then they'd boo him off the stage. So now he says that Linux will never replace Windows on the desktop but will instead be "successful" on the desktop. What successful means, I don't know. But if Linux can beat Apple's 3.5 percent of the market, I'd consider that a success.
