[tlug] Commercial consortium plans to promote Linux in Japan

[Sigurd Urdahl <sigurdur@example.com>]

I picked this one up on lwn.net. A little thin detail-wise, but 
interesting none the less.

   Major information technology firms, including Oracle Corp. (ORCL.O),
   IBM Corp. (IBM.N) and NEC Corp. (6701.T), will set up a consortium
   to sell servers and systems running the Linux operating system in
   Japan, a financial daily said on Thursday.

Does anyone here have any numbers on linux adoption in Japan vs <other 
countries>?

Kind reagards,
