50% or so, which is pretty good.
That still leaves about 5 million seats running something other
than redhat.
If Redhat can pull off a market takeover of the Linux community,
more power to them -- I think that they are enough like Microsoft
so that they could get a large wad of market share and cling to
it like grim death itself [1]. Until then, it strikes me as A
Really Bad Idea to assume that everyone on the sun is running the
latest redhat distribution.

\/ barring some pretty spectacular antitrust
decisions. Redhat seems to be the only
US Linux distribution that's as focused
as Microsoft, and that's good for Linux.]
