The article mentioned "Most analysts agree that Linux is growing fast but
still hasn't matched the abilities of AIX or of other versions of Unix,
including Hewlett-Packard's HP-UX and Sun Microsystems' Solaris."   Where is
Linux falls short?  The area that falls short for me to switch is the some
of the high end applications that we use just is not written for Linux but
that is not a short coming of the os just a short coming of the developers
realizing how to utilize Linux to there advantage.
