I'm curious. Where does this number come from? Taken literally it means that
Linux will be on more desktops than Vista in 100 months, but we all know that
isn't going to happen. At least not with the current technologies.
Actually, less than 8ish years because I've seen this number in this forum
before but I can't find any references to it in our friend Google.

When the fax machine was invented it was absolutely useless until the second
was was made. The value of the first machine has increased exponentially as
each machine came on line and has virtually no bounds. Linux or ANY open
system product by design has a peak. It will have early adopters, ramp up,
and then ramp down just as quickly due to it's premise. Its downfall is its
strength, open systems. The more you let people make changes, the more the
systems become non-interoperable. So the early people buy and use it, they
make changes, they isolate each other due to "independent greatness, each
one trying to outdo each other". Then they die. QED. "And that's the way
it is."

Nor have I. Just another smacktard making sh*t up as he goes along.

Unix went through that cycle several times and it wasn't open.
