“Thankfully, many who saw the futility and destruction caused by the Unix wars are also participating in the Linux world. And they have no intention of letting lightning strike twice.
Granted, the potential Linux problem is not nearly as extreme as the Unix problem had been. With Unix, just about every variant had a different kernel, surrounded by different utilities, hosted on different hardware architectures. Changing Unix vendors was usually an expensive proposition, both in hardware and software.”
