Fair enough. But the entire point of the article is that "There will never be another RedHat".
It's the title, it's presumably the main point of the article - and it's ridiculously over-generalising.
RedHat as a company, works.
The market share is still largely with Microsoft, thus still available to be stolen away. Therefore, there is still room for a huge amount of competition in the OS vendor/support space. I can't see how anyone can argue against that.
I'll grant you that perhaps RedHat could be making more money by spreading out into different sectors like SaaS and PaaS, but that doesn't mean that there can't be another RedHat in the market.
I guess my main complaint is with how this point is argued. The charts are deeply misleading for the point that is trying to be made.
