Did this really happen? Hmmm.
Sales of Unix are down and 'Sales' of Linux are up by virtually every survey I see. I think that yes it probably has happened a lot. And, as I can now testify yes at least one Sun shop has ditched Solaris for RedHat whilst running e-business suite so Oracle apps people do it as well.
