Well unless you've done some sort of statistically valid survey saying "virtually all large companies run on Windows" is just yet more statement without facts to back it up from you.

Do you have any sensible response to the actual arguments advanced in the links I posted, or are you just going to engage in silly attacks against the sources?
Have you actually read the two sources you quote? I took the time to read them. The BI article was torn to shreds by the commentators below the article.

As for the opinion on your obscure blog, so that's the best you can do? Shall I go publish something on blogger.com and quote it as a reputable source? He might want to invest in a spell checker, "intorduced" isn't a word last time I knew. I can see why he doesn't provide editorials for the New York Times. He also incorrectly states that h.264 is proprietary when it has been a VCEG standard since 2003. He doesn't do his research either.

Hint, providing links doesn't instantly give you a platform to stand on. Try getting some credible sources next time and taking the time to review what they said. Unless of course you prefer to go down with them.
