Linux growing stronger in China
Much of the world may still be dominated by Microsoft, with Apple running a distant but statistically significant second; That hasn't stopped Linux installs from growing at an outstripping pace in China. According to ZDnet Asia, Linux growth has outpaced that of any other operating system in China over the first quarter of 2007. Make no mistake, Windows and commercial flavors of Unix are still dominant in China, but analysts remind us that the open-source community in China is still young, and there is room for growth if qualified open source engineers can keep up with rampant employment demands.
