"The Problem
Enterprise users have embraced GNU/Linux. But the very aspects that
make Linux desirable, its low cost, Open Source nature, and the way it
gives customers more control over their software, are under attack by
Linux vendors bent on increasing shareholder value. Businesses are
paying more as Linux distributions demand a per-seat cost and service
lock-in for software that they didn't develop and that others support.
Many of the early adopters of Linux are small but profitable industries
with extremely sophisticated needs, and commercial Linux distributors
simply can't afford to pay much attention to them while larger markets
are waiting. "........
