Anatomy Of A Ziff-Davis Pundit
Collected Jesse Berst ramblings from the past few years:
"I've always said Linux could be a serious challenger."
"Could you get fired for choosing Linux?"
"Linux won't beat Microsoft."
"But in some situations, Linux makes sense."
"Linux will never go mainstream."
"We've been writing about the alternative OS for a long time
now. Watching its slow, steady ascent."
