Do you have any sources for this?

That's a pretty broad sweeping statement to proclaim without solid facts 
to back it up, especially when it goes against a number of Red Hat's 
marketing claims.

IBM has been selling support for Linux since 1999, Dell has been 
shipping it on servers since about the time they started and Google has 
always been quite vocal about the amount of Linux they use. Most 
Universities here in AU, even in their most Microsoft-centric courses, 
still cover linux and it's use in the BIS sphere.
