Well, I'm glad I wasn't the only one to have that difficulty.  Frankly, I
expected an article that boasted Windows' matching UNIX to get more in depth
about how it was doing so.  For all the attention given to Linux' growth,
the article could just as easily have been titled, "Linux Enterprise Usage
Surges".  I just thought the writer should have focused more on the
Windows/UNIX comparison, and how that fleshed out.
