And any business person will ask: Where are the applications? Businesses need not only the "geek" applications, but a lot of custom built software, which usually runs on Windows, or is closed source. I don't see too many business applications available from the Open Source world at the moment. Particularly applications suited to specific vertical segments like financials, or banking, or CRM, or cross division collaboration (think Exchange or Lotus Notes -- OGo and Kroupware are not quite there yet).

Literally reading my mind. Without application operating systems is useless. Only reason why there are tens of thousand of old Novell server running legacy ERP applications are these applications run only on Novell netware
