[linux-team] NT future



J'ai résumé quelques statistiques trouvée dans un article intitulé :

" Removing the plank : Microsoft should be more concerned
 with its own OS design problems than with Linux" Nicolas Petreley

	Alain
=========================================================================
Microsoft: Muth's opinion about Linux :
"It's a difficult business model to make work. It's one of 
those things that the market will decide" [in favor of M$ ?]

The market seems already to have made the choice...

========================================================================
The choice of professionals using NT servers for the next 12 months 
-------------------------------------------------------------------
[source: a survey over 1999 NT users made by 
   Sunbelt sofware, which claims to be "The world's first and largest 
      distributor of Windows NT system management utilities]

So, it is not coming from the Linux side !
--------------------------------------------------------------------
REM: 3/4 of the users already are running at least one Linux server !

Projects for the next 12 months :
* 1/2 have no projects for new NT servers
* 3/4 are planning the installation of Linux servers

NT:
more than 5 servers : 17%
more than 50 servers : 2%
more than 100 servers : 1%

Linux:
more than 5 servers : 50%
more than 50 servers : 12%
more than 100 servers : 8%

No more comments...
