Gartner Update: Five-Year Server OS Forecast
October 2000

Within the overall forecast, Unix revenue (excluding Linux) falls slightly, from $20.4 billion in 2000 to $18.4 billion in 2005. This is due to the narrower market scope and the continuing encroachment of Linux at the low end and Windows 2000 in the midrange and high end. Windows will capture 20.6 percent of total revenues in 2000, increasing to 34.0 percent in 2005 with the maturity of Windows 2000 and its follow-on generations. As Linux continues to meet with increased acceptance in Web servers, the impact is seen in both lower Unix sales (excluding Linux) and less Windows penetration. If we combine Linux and other Unix sales, the forecast shows them together capturing 39.2 percent of the market by 2005, exceeding the Windows share of 34.0 percent.
