Well I believe sco is another os2 os in decline. I see Linux continuing to evolve and Linux's percentage penetration will become critical in more and more application arena's. Sun slowlaris is the big unix which because of size may give it continued staying power of several years. All others may wither as Linux infected from all areas of education move in solutions space. As the sgi maya port other's will start to port more mainstream applications. I don't know the timetable and I consider all Linux distribution companies
as poor investments.

Open for Business

by Tiernan Ray

Yes, their stocks were seriously overhyped in '99. But the linux movement - along with the rest of the 'open source' computer world - is not going away. Investors, ignore it at your own risk.

When Bristol-Myers Squibb bought new computers for its genomic research, it chose Linux. It's getting eight times more computer power per dollar spent.

Good article.

Best of luck.
