...Gillen said. "On the second day of January, Microsoft had generated more operating system revenue than the Linux community (will for the entire year)."

you should be more worried about the lack of revenues coming to MSFT because of Linux, rather than Linux revenues..... there isn't much revenues in a free OS, and these installations are not well measured by such a survey of "SALES" since sales don't measure Linux type of software "downloads"..... but the impact on MSFT is measurable and significant.......
