Open Source Users

March 25, 2010

With Red Hat ringing the cash register, interest in open source continues to chug forward. If you are tracking Linux users for competitive intelligence or sales leads, you will want to snag a copy of “50 Places Linux is Running That You Might Not Expect”. Well, I did expect quite a few of these outfits, but there were some interesting open source adopters. One was IBM. I wonder why that outfit doesn’t use its own mainframes and zOS? Oh, I know. Cost. Darn good list. I did not know that Spain ran Linux. There’s the Bitext outfit which has some government clients, and some of its software supports the Microsoft Windows ethos.

Yep, freebie. I will report this to the Department of Defense. I thought that outfit was into Microsoft technology. Well, the DoD does not work for free as I do.
