I think I posted at cross purposes with you. I agree with you on Citrix as a potential Gorilla. I just don't think that Ellison's linux box is going to make much of a dent.

I also doubt if Citrix will stick their thumb in Gate's eye. They will use other systems if that is what the customer wants, but they won't go out of their way to not use Windows.

What's to prevent Microsoft from subsuming the winframe
server's function into the operating system?

James What Citrix does to several current gorilla's (primary MSFT and INTC) is it reduces the strength of their proprietary architectures on the high volume client side of a company's IT infrastructure.



Sounds like a discontinuous innovation to me, the only gorilla poison known
