Of course from a technical perpective Linux is Unix. Which is
probably very confusing for non-tech business types, since from
the perspective of a business model, its nothing they've ever
seen before. I suppose the reasoning is "we charge for Unix. We
don't charge for Linux, therefore Linux is not Unix".
