There is a revolution going on, and its anti-business.

That's entirely incorrect. It might be anti-M$ business, but your statement is like saying the American Revolutionary War was 'anti-government' (when in fact it was just anti-king).

Free hardware is the trend on the client side. The cheaper the fat-client hardware, the better for Corel. You don't see pricing pressures being put on scalable and robust server hardware though, do you?.

How could the 'anti-business' revolution of Linux create so many billions of dollars in VC funding? How could the 'anti-business revolution' of Linux cause so many CEOs and investment bankers to be scheduling Linux IPOs?

There *is a revolution going on. It's against the old order of M$. The new order is the internet, open standards and Unix.

It's probably only the single most pro-business thing to happen in the entire economic history of the world.
