London Stock Exchange dumps Microsoft for Linux
To save on costs and have total control for future innovations, the
London Stock Exchange (LSE) has opted to replace its .NET-based
TradElect system with Linux-based MilleniumIT.
....
Aside from the cost-saving benefits, there are expected performance
boosts as well. According to LSE spokesman Alistair Fairbrother, tests
on the MilleniumIT system using data from LSE revealed capabilities of
achieving sub-millisecond speeds. LSE's current trading speed on the
TradElect system is reported to be about 2.7 milliseconds.

A few highlights: Emirates Group, Verizon Communications, Allianz
Insurance, CME Group, Auto Trader, Gap Inc., KLM, Wall Street Systems,
The Chicago Tribune, Avis Car Rental, Western Power (AU), Europcar,
Daiwa Securities America Inc., Specsavers, U.S. Army SDDC, U.S. Army
ERM, Comcast, Warner Music Group, DoubleClick, Ticketmaster, Statoil,
Rackspace, The Kingfisher Group, Fiat, Federal Aviation Administration,
and Eveready.
That's just some of them, and only for RHEL. What about Novell,
Canonical, Mandriva, SmoothWall, and others? What about companies that
use non-commercial GNU/Linux distros, such as CentOS, which is very
popular with hosting companies?
Then there's Hollywood, which is virtually a Linux-only shop:

In the film industry, Linux has won. It's running on practically all
servers and desktops used for feature animation and visual effects.
LinuxMovies.org met monthly in Hollywood for years, but now rarely meets.
Linux is used to create practically every blockbuster movie in theaters
today, movies produced by Disney/Pixar, DreamWorks Animation, Sony, ILM,
and other studios.
Linux is the most popular operating system for big budget feature film
animation and visual effects, with more than 95% of the servers and
desktops at large animation and visual effects companies.

And let's not forget the biggest ones of all ... Oracle, IBM and Google.

And only ignorant freetards think Linux can run anything but a tiny
business with simple needs.

LOL!
Yeah, Oracle, IBM, Google, Hollywood, many of the world's biggest brands
across every industry, and nearly every stock exchange in the world ...
is just a bunch of "ignorant freetards" running "tiny businesses with
simple needs".
Poor DooFy.
