                Did this really happen? Hmmm.

        Sales of Unix are down and 'Sales' of Linux are up by virtually every survey I see. I think that yes it probably has happened a lot. And, as I can now testify yes at least one Sun shop has ditched Solaris for RedHat whilst running e-business suite so Oracle apps people do it as well.

...right, I'm aware of current market trends. I was asking about the specific statement above. I don't think "we" dumped Unix years ago for Linux.
