@Maple Story

Why would you ask in a article that is 3-mths old?
It’s clearly explained on this website how to contact the relevant people.
That would be far more effective than necro-posting.
Unless this is just more of the weird SPAM that wordpress BLOGS have been hit with lately.

Do you mind if I quote a couple of your articles as long as
I provide credit and sources back to your webpage?
My blog site is in the very same area of interest as yours and my users would genuinely benefit
from a lot of the information you provide here. Please let me know if this ok with you.
Many thanks!

Waiting for Jolla as long as I have to. Only when Jolla release their device will I make a change from my Nokia N9. Nokia let alot of people down with their new phones, love the brand but cant show them any love for whats out there now.

Here’s a decent enough read on what goes on in the modern datacenter landscape these days.

“As far as Linux, 70% of web runs on Linux, may be more. Top 10 web sites, definitely.”

Maybe, maybe not. The statistics, especially for big websites are skewed since it is in practice not possible to access the actual servers from the public internet, instead you are hitting Akamai proxies, load balancers and anything but the actual servers. Of course, since Akamai AFAIK runs Linux, you could say that in practice the top sites run on Linux no matter what the company’s actual web platform is.

“It commands 60% + share in server space and absolutely killing windows there.”

Not according to the latest figures that I could find, IDC 2Q12 that have Linux servers at 22% revenue share and Windows servers at 48% revenue share.

Yes, Red Hat was successful, very much so, but they weren’t going in against an entrenched market. They were going in against a bunch of different Unixes and Microsoft. That’s a quite different situation.

The closest is Tablets – they’re still in their infancy, and Canonical realises that, which is why Unity is being re-done to work with a tablet interface (incidentally, a few people have pointed out that it has some similarities to Maemo 5). But even there, they’ve still got some strong commercial backing, and it’s unlikely they’ll ever be anything more than a small player.

It will converge into a standard size, yes, but it’s going to be on the bigger size.

Look, it’s not about Linux. It’s about Jolla and why would Jolla succeed. Linux is nice but so what?

The reason why I get the last word with you is actually pretty simple.

You make claims, I ask you why and you keep posting anything but real explanation. Then you simply stop because you don’t have anything to continue with.

You were talking about N9 sales in the quarter it was released. You posted some link with huge amount of comments. And you never explained why. All you had was the claim that there was some math but you were unable to show the math. What?

When asked about native applications you gave some vague comments how there will be some native features forcing developers to replace Android code with native code. This time you never explained what are those features. Just claimed that there are some. What?

It seems that you don’t want to talk. Maybe you just want to preach?

Agree with you there. Its just the feeling I have, but for me the Samsung’s Tizens seems similar to Nokia’s OS efforts: they are the market leader and others might want to stay away. They seem to have some disagreements with intel already. Thirdly, they really arent a software company. Also, their business model seems to be reactive to market changes – though extremely fast – which might make it problematic to drive software development together with very wide product family.
