Calm, Rational Penguinistas are Called For!

[elfs]

Okay, this is for the Puget Sound Penguinistas. I need a Linux guru who can talk business, stat. John Moe, the host of KUOW's tech show The Works, recently did a show on "alternatives to Microsoft"; the show was entirely about Apple and why it's so great.

I asked him why didn't include Linux in the list of alternatives, since arguably it powers more servers and nearly as many desktops. (Nevermind that the core of Mac OS X is BSD... we won't discuss that.) He said he'd like to do one, but he needed someone who could talk Linux business rationally. He said his opening show was about "the two BIG companies"-- what, like the aggregate Linux market doesn't show up well compared to iTunes?

Anyway, anyone out there want to put forth a proposal for what we could discuss with John Moe?

Yes, the sounds reasonable - and he's definitely more a techie than a sales/marketing guy.
