General Unix The end of the world is near. At last that of the Unix world. That's the prediction of Donald Feinberg, vice-president of Gartner. "Linux is coming, Unix is dead." But there's no need to panic. Not just yet. The end is not going to come overnight or even in next week or year, but it is certain, or as he puts it, "an absolute".

Very well put, except one thing. Linux and now apparently OpenSolaris is not centric to only arch by any means. Right now I have an ibook and an amd64 box both running Linux. I just read that OpenSolaris has been ported to ppc. Also IBM has big stakes in getting Linux happy on their hardware, such as their work with the 970FX power management in Linux.
