I tend to disagree wholeheartedly with the authors analysis that Linux will not win in the Industrial Controls marketplace until it lands on more users desktops.
In fact, I predict that Linux WILL win in the marketplace because you don't NEED a pretty desktop to operate an Industrial process (although I will put my KDE desktop up against anything Microsoft offers
). I've heard this arguement many times, and it just doesn't hold water. The Linux kernel is far more stable than anything Microsoft offers and is perfect for embedding into Industrial devices. With it's native support of the TCP/IP stack, it's speed, and it's ability to utilize PC bus architecture to
the fullest, I feel that Linux is indeed the future of Automation.
