   I can do better than that. In class yesterday, I asked the prof what program
would you use if you do not have winders. Her answer was, "your out of luck,
there is no other os than winders. 98% of the world uses it and it is the os of
choice. It is hat the bussiness world uses." I asked her what aboutLinux and the
fact that 27% of servers are Linux and opensource software is starting to take it
place. She said never."

amagzing is the fact of denial. or is it brain washed.


Your prof is right though, at least for today and when you look at overall computer usage (perhaps not for whatever specific application your using for your class though).


Most businesses run Windows. Most software that businesses use runs only on Windows or occasionally the more expensive Unix workstations. I'll grant that there are many small tech based companies (like where I work ;) that run heavily or exclusively on Linux but they are a small percentage of the overall market.

I think this will change eventually, but for most it hasn't yet.
