                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. 

...right, I'm aware of current market trends. I was asking about the
specific statement above. I don't think "we" dumped Unix years ago for
Linux.
