Hi,
    A very dispassionate article indeed.  I would love
to see some economist to do some real analysis on
whether is REALLY GNU/Linux making the cost cutting as
opposed to MS Windows.  Because as the interviewee
rightly mentions, GNU/Linux ownership cost though are
close to zero, as the revenue model of all the
companies selling GNU/Linux goes, one has to pay for
the support and that bites a lot.  Having in-house
support system may not be possible for small-cos.

     So if anybody knows of some article in the
regards of how economics works out in case of
GNU/Linux please let me know.

Thanx,

Regards,
Aditya
