hard to tell linux in vogue and i haven't studied msft fundamentals this too shall pass when folks undertand the 'threads' between the larger systems, service providers, knowledge base, software applications base etc... funny how apparently the linux evangelists count number of MSFT platforms and assume linux can 'take' a percentage i might be a dinosaur, but i think of it this way, the app/os/hdwr is like an oreo cookie, hard to change any entrenched component without disrupting the other two business oreo cookie is the hardest to change, most time, 5 yrs? consumer oreo cookie has been 'half' munched by java and www :) why? java doesn't care, so app developers swinging hard cost of programmers MUCH lower java runs server/client, either/or/and look! qcharts, realtime tick data client portion not java, BUT qfeed has api to feed java cheap, effective, will do well, blows away competitors can be adapted for EOD date, will errode reuters, bloomberg, etc... doesn't need OS with java, runs windows linux on my client for qcharts? i would like to dump windows, too much stress linux is not less stress jmo ynot ;)
