1/2 a year later I'm still waiting for Solaris to take market share from Linux. November survey.
Quote:Fact 7: Across all vendors Linux on x86 outshipped Sun's Solaris on x86 shipments by a approximately 78.9 to 1 on a worldwide unit basis.
Sun's Solaris on x86 had a 0.27% unit market share of the worldwide x86-32 and x86-64 market.
Fact 8: A majority of Sun's x86 servers shipped with Linux, not Solaris.
IDC reported that more than two-thirds (67.6%) of x86 servers shipped by Sun (combined x86-32 and x86-64) were shipped with Linux -- not Solaris-- operating environments.

The last time I used Solaris on a server was 1998. That experiment lasted under a month.

I voted no to using Solaris. You and Mandy voted yes. Who was right from the start?
