:> by IDC and was estimated at 6.8% of the server operating system
:> market, after NT, Novell NetWare, and "Unix" :-)

:Quick glue all the unixen together before they come too low ;)

:More seriously do you have a URL to the IDC one ?
:
It is not yet on the site (so it appears) but it was in the
last page of today's Newspaper.
The numbers were:
36.0%: Windows NT
26.4%: Netware (Novell)
20.0%: Unix
6.8%: Linux
6.3%: OS/2
3.8%: Other
(It adds to 99.3% probably due to last digit rounding)
What's no less important, I feel, is that Linux is the _only_
alternative OS to MS that actually _grew_, all the rest lost
market share to Microsoft.
