The next logical step is how many companies running SAP (or any other MS SQL based application) will jump to MS SQL now that it's running on Linux? That seems like a small market to me.
I'd argue that it still changes nothing as MS SQL server is /already/ an option for that software.

For Linux, customers already have a wide choice of lower-cost, full-featuresd players: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Informix, Sybase, and Ingres in addition to Oracle. How does adding another lower-cost player change Oracle's sales prospects?It changes things because SQL Server has a bunch of applications running against it, SAP being one of them. And I wouldn't call MySQL or PostgreSQL "full featured".
