IIRC, one of the main reasons Linux is so dominant for server-usage is because it was released before BSD. If Linux had never been made, BSD would very likely have taken its place. If BSD wasn't made either? Some other Unix-like. Maybe Solaris or Mac. If Unix was never invented, then maybe Windows would take its place.
BSD was released as a standalone kernel over ten years before linux.
I lookes it up, and the quote I was thinking of was this:
So yeah, sorry about getting the timing of things wrong, and thank you for correcting me.
I do still think however, that if not for Linux, it would be BSD running most servers and such.
I was wondering, the timing was a sore point for bsd users back in the day. But linux had the upper hand because it was built on pc, spoke the language, so to speak. The groundswell was immense because all the hobbyists already understood the boot stack and the machine code. I don't disagree but it is "coulda woulda shoulda".
If they had ported to 386 a few years earlier, linus probably would be a bsd enthusiast. It is also possible the window that drove him there could have persisted well past bsd on 386. Who knows.
I think we're on the same page, now.
It's been nice discussing such things with someone who argues in good faith.
Cool username, btw :3
Thanks
