I don't believe that. Any organisation the size of a bank will almost
certainly use a mixture of Windows, Unix/Linux and probably IBM
mainframe machines, That's certainly true of all of the banks at which
I've worked. Much as I love Unix, it's not necessarily the right tool
for every job (yet). Although there are some notable exceptions, most
businesses will use a mixture of OSes because no single OS is suited
to everything they do, and making money ranks higher than OS zealotry.
