Start-ups ride the open source design wave
,----[ Quote ]
| ...in the last five years three fundamental changes have happened.
| Firstly, an open source operating system written by coders all over
| the planet has achieved enterprise-class stability and reliability,
| so much so that now every major server vendor sells Linux servers.
| Sun ships a Solaris/x86 server but, less well known, they also ship
| a Linux/x86 server which substantially outsells their Solaris box.
| Solaris has gone open source. There is no question Linux has
| won this battle.
