Windows "Almost a year on from the release of Microsoft's Windows Vista, only 13 percent of companies say they expect to move all desktops to the operating system, according to a survey released this week. Furthermore, adoption of Linux continues to gather pace, with a particular emphasis on the desktop emerging." As always, be sure to read these with a bag of salt on your desk.

Show me something major, like a stock trading system, missle control, nuclear operations.

How about Yahoo? That does count as a Fortune 500 AFAIK... Besides, what do you know about missile control or nuclear operations anyway? I VERY highly doubt they use Windows there...(As a little hint: most likely they use some proprietary OS specifically built for their hardware and have all they sources available so they can modify them as fast as possible whenever the need arises)
