More than 20% of all desktop capable computers are running Linux
----------------------------------------------------------------

Strange thing but if you march in and out of businesses taking notes on what
kind of computing is needed by the business, the numbers become staggeringly
large for Linux.

For every desktop capable PC out there being used by staff some 20% or more
are running Linux.

Whethers its mail servers, web servers, intranets, ftp servers, storage 
servers, etc, the count of around 20% of the total desktop PC count is 
unmistakable.

If each PC has a staff member, then each mail server, web server etc
Linux PC is another staff member handling mail, handling sales brochures,
etc etc etc. In some companies like Google, the ratio is all in favor of 
Linux, which why they make so much money. In samller and medium size 
companies, it is possible to judge its potential by the number of Linux
server army beavering away delivering revenue and profit. The smaller that 
number, the less likely that business is making real sustainable long term 
money.

Pressing Linux servers into action and Linux desktops is the real strength
a business has to show for itself if its out there making money.

Linux "advocates" are absolutely desperate for higher user counts.

Too bad: the world has dismissed desktop Linux, with prejudice.

Windowps and appile are too risky to use in servers.
Windopws and appile funded trolls knows it and risk
exposing vulnerabilities that are easy to expoloit if they are ever
put to server roles.


Anyway have a look the original post troll and weep if you must.
It seems 20% of all desktop capable computers are running Linux now:

Or for that matter Windopws funded trolls.

Linux is support exceptionally well across the board 
by community support. Look it up!

And that makes it much more interesting than NSA troll

Other than the twelve or so of us, nobody actually reads this newsgroup.
Usenet is dead and it will remain that day, no effort by the imbeciles
who think they've advocating Linux will change that.

Is that one of the fixed site models (Wikipedia claims this for the early ones)?

Yeah, that'd do it.

It looks identical to this one:
http://rugerforum.net/ruger-double-action/20634-finally-got-new-security-six.html

Mine has a 4" barrel, with the red dot on the front sight.  Same grip, 
which feels like a hard plastic or resin, probably not wood.

Mine was made in the early 80s, per:
http://www.ruger.com/service/productHistory.html#

The Security Six line ended production in 1988 (27 years ago).

It's a beast to shoot, but I put down some decent accuracy last time I 
was at the range.

Looks really comfortable.  The factory grips are definitely too small 
for my hands.

Send 'em to me for Christmas!  Thanks!

There are some aftermarket 27-round mags for the Glock 21, but I don't trust
them.  I also have a 30 (my CC weapon) and the 21 mags are interchangeable
with it, which is cool, but in the 30 they feel like i'm holding a broom.
(The standard-cap mags for the 30 are 10-rounders).  Both of mine are Gen3 
models.

More than 20% of all desktop capable computers are running Linux

Read the original post and weep:


More than 20% of all desktop capable computers are running Linux
----------------------------------------------------------------

Strange thing but if you march in and out of businesses taking notes on what
kind of computing is needed by the business, the numbers become staggeringly
large for Linux.

For every desktop capable PC out there being used by staff some 20% or more
are running Linux.

Whethers its mail servers, web servers, intranets, ftp servers, storage 
servers, etc, the count of around 20% of the total desktop PC count is 
unmistakable.

If each PC has a staff member, then each mail server, web server etc
Linux PC is another staff member handling mail, handling sales brochures,
etc etc etc. In some companies like Google, the ratio is all in favor of 
Linux, which why they make so much money. In samller and medium size 
companies, it is possible to judge its potential by the number of Linux
server army beavering away delivering revenue and profit. The smaller that 
number, the less likely that business is making real sustainable long term 
money.

Pressing Linux servers into action and Linux desktops is the real strength
a business has to show for itself if its out there making money.
