Dear Luser:
OK I should have said 3 biggest consumer software compaies - does it matter?. People around the world recognize MS/Apple/Yahoo more readily than some others.
IBM doesn't make mass market Operating systems (last time they did with OS/2 they got their butts whipped by MS. They then tried it with Pink and got butts kicked by MacOS),
Novell and big??? they are on the brink of death and like Corel are banking on Linux saving their a** --- haha!).
Google uses Linux like Yahoo uses FreeBSD, but ok compare compare their revenues $962M (see sec) for Google in 2003 and $1.6B for Yahoo (see forbes)
