The Microsoft software is obsolete
Именно так и будет
как я уже и говорил, слухи о смерти несколько преувеличены
In Q1 2010, Windows Server was installed on 75.3 percent of the servers sold worldwide. Linux was on 20.8 percent of the servers and Unix on only 3.6 percent. Both Windows Server and Linux grew in share from Q4 2009 to Q1 2010; Unix declined slightly.
On the revenue side of the house, Windows Server-based systems brought in 48.9 percent of the dollars worldwide, IDC said. Unix was No. 2 with 22 percent and Linux, third, with 16.2 percent. As in the case of units, Unix-based systems lost share between Q4 2009 and Q1 2010.
Here are IDC’s latest figures, as well as the comparable IDC data for Q4 2009. Note the percentages don’t total 100. That is because IDC includes an unspecified “other” category that is not included here.
Q1 2010 units
Windows 1,379,487 (75.3%)
Unix 65,451 (3.6%)
Linux 380,429 (20.8%)
Q4 2009 units
Windows 1,434,225 (73.9%)
Unix 84,851 ( 4.4%)
Linux 412,041 (21.2%)
Q1 2010 dollars
Windows $5.1 billion (48.9%)
Unix $2.3 billion (22.2%)
Linux $1.7 billion (16.2%)
Q4 2009 dollars
Windows $5.4 billion (41.6%)
Unix $3.9 billion (29.9%)
Linux $1.9 billion (14.7%)
A few more observations from IDC’s latest report:
* Microsoft Windows server demand was positively impacted by the accelerating x86 server market, as hardware revenue increased 33.6% and unit shipments increased 28.3% year over year.
* Quarterly revenue of $5.1 billion for Windows servers represented 48.9% of overall quarterly factory revenue. This is the highest percentage of server hardware revenue that Windows servers have ever represented.
* Unix servers experienced 29.0% revenue decline when compared to 1Q09 as customers waited for additional detail on the Sun-Oracle server roadmap. They were also anticipating a ramp of IBM POWER7 servers, which began shipping in Q1, and, separately, HP Integrity servers based on Intel Itanium 9300 processors that were announced in April. Worldwide Unix revenues were $2.3 billion for the quarter, representing 22.2% of quarterly server spending (down 10.5 points over 1Q09).
