I think this argument is based on an inadequate definition of a "Web Server". If "Web Server" means a computer with a connection to the internet of any kind and an http server application running at all times that may or may not ever transmit a web page, I doubt Sun has 72%. There are simply too many little Linux and SCO boxes out there, and I'll bet you so-called "white box" unbadged home-brew Wintel machines have as big a share as Compaq or Dell (sorry, no source, just a guess). If "Web Server" means one of the 5,000 computers in the world that account for 80% of web page transactions on the server side, then I would just as a guess say that between 71% and 74% of those are Sun boxes. --QS
