Ten?
More than likely 20 years from now, if that.
These Lino-Idiots love to make up numbers to quote but the reality is
that if you strut in the door of any fortune 500 company you will have
to look in the back closet to find Linux in any shape, form or fashion
and should you do this you will more than likely find a geek
masturbating over his superior knowledge and the fact that he actually
has a job and can pay mom and dad the rent for the month.
Fact is Linux is nowhere on the desktop and any figure you see in COLA
is made up.
