Linux has already permanently changed the enterprise desktop landscape, and is set to grow further, according to a new report from Forrester Research. The report, How Windows Vista Will Shake Up The State Of The Enterprise Operating System, published this week, predicted that the days of ever more strict standardisation on the Windows platform are effectively over. Linux will only become a stronger force in the enterprise, according to Forrester analyst Benjamin Gray.
Quoting:"Expect Linux to experience growth over the next year as the distributors work hard to make it an enterprise-class offering."
Working hard but not hard to do since Linux is enterprise-class already. All is needed is for software vendors make their apps run on Linux.
Quoting:The latest version of Windows runs on 2 percent of enterprise desktops in Europe and North America, found the report, which was based on a survey of just over 1,000 executives in hardware decision-making roles.
The sludge speed adoption of Vista is not only due to its abundance of problematic issues, but also due to lack of meaningful and beneficial new features and capabilities that would make the headache and cost of Vista adoption be worth while. The CIOs learned their lesson from rolling out XP. Why would any enterprise want to roll out Vista if there is no benefit or a good have to reason.
Linux got the enterprise thinking; why unnecessarily pay for and use an OS that has no benefits to offer when Linux can offer many advantages and mostly for free?
Enterprise CIOs are wising up and Linux momentum is building.
