Madera, California Switches to Open Source Second Novell Linux Spoof
Aug 01

Straight from www.networkworld.com. Not much more I can say than is already summed up below.

Talk about eating your own dog food. IBM today will announce it is consolidating nearly 4,000 small computer servers in six locations onto about 30 refrigerator-sized mainframes running Linux saving $250 million in the process.

It comprises 6 data centers that take up 8 million square feet, or around 140 football fields. If you’re on the fence on trying to decide if Linux is enterprise ready, I think this should make the decision pretty easy.
