That's why I said "it's a sign": I didn't say it's a conclusion. Your 
responses here have been illuminating: the fact that you paid enough 
attention to it to respond is even better, and helps allay such concerns.

But it's still not clear exactly what you folks do with Linux.

Fair enough. To bring it back to the topic, what *precisely* are you using 
Linux for and why? Is yours an end-to-end Linux solution, or are you simply 
using Linux for the backend servers in your data handling? Which 
distribution?
