Another case in point. SCO is inside every NCR cash
register. Thats a lot of machines.
My point is that there is SO much more than the desktop and
even then there are many embedded Linux products that will
be `desktop'. With several embedded Linux vendors already
and probably more in the future to fill niche embedded
markets, handheld Web devices, phones, entertainment
machines such as desktop pokies, printers etc any
prediction that doesn't define precisely what it is actually
encompassing can be interpreted any which way you like in
the future.
