I hear a lot about desktop apps for Linux, and ways to wean one's self off
Windows, but what about major corporations?  Linux doesn't scale to the
heights of, say, Solaris, so I'm trying to get an idea of how or if big
organizations can put major databases (Oracle, DB2, etc.) or OLTP systems on
Linux.  Or big NT shops for that matter -- can a big enterprise really dump
NT to any significant extent and make the leap to Linux, or is that a few
years away yet?
