Paper excerpt:
"Kusnetzky Group clients often question 'what is the real size of the market for Linux?' They're hoping to map out their IT budgets for the coming years without accidentally betting on the wrong platform. They're confused by all the different metrics they see presented in press releases and presentations offered by industry research firms. One view makes the market look like its expanding while another; equally reputable, report might paint a bleak picture of a declining market.
"While I'm pleased that the confusion often leads decision makers to my door, I must admit that the real answer is likely to be complex. It's clear to me that a bit of explanation is in order of both types of market measurements and what each type really means."
