"One of the biggest reasons for this remains that Linux is cheaper than the alternatives." This is such a fallacy considering that RHEL support is exorbitantly expensive and notoriously poor, while SmartOS costs literally the price of hardware and not much more. I'm sick and tired of the clueless press pandering and Linux bandwagon propaganda. Linux is popular because the kids who grew up on Linux ISO's is the only OS they know and they stick to that like a drunkard sticks to a fence so as not to keel over. It's completely irrational.
