IBM's deal with Brazil is the third major international Linux announcement
for the technology giant this week. The company on Wednesday touted deals
with the United Kingdom and Russia. Other countries are looking into Linux
as well. Japan, Korea and China have formed a group to develop open-source
software as a replacement for Windows in certain applications.

Both Linux and Windows are growing forces in the server market, according to
industry researcher IDC. The firm recently estimated that Microsoft Windows
grew to account for 55 percent of the server operating system market, while
Linux jumped to 23 percent of the market in 2002.

Puse hace unos dias la noticia sobre Rusia y Reino Unido, ademas IBM
esta poniendo muchos recursos para esta cuestion (informacion de
primera mano), y si los Gobiernos creen en este software, es cuestion
de tiempo que los usuarios/profesionales/etc por lo menos lo vayan
probando y comparando, aunque a veces las comparaciones sean odiosas.

Y tambien creo que es positivo se ha visto que cuando alguien domina
el mercado no es bueno del todo, y una competencia real, siempre nos
beneficiara a todos.

Salu2.
