I read the FT at work & (shock, horror) Open Source & Linux are
mentioned nearly every day. Mind you, so are Micro$oft.

The main difference however, is that M$ are usually mentioned in the
context of the latest threat to business posed by a newly found security
flaw, or the EU anti-trust case against them. Open Source & Linux are
usually mentioned in the context of how beneficial to business the open
source model can be, how Linux continues to be chosen by business the
world over & how cute, fluffy & gorgeous that little penguin is :-)
