OK, during this respite I have been thinking about the term 'ecosystem' used
a lot recently. When one thinks of what it takes to maintain an operating
system, you need several things and these need to work together. You need
HP, you need users and you need developers. There's been a lot of talk
about the users and HP but what about the developers? I checked out the web
sites of the companies that advertise in the 3000 News Wire and a couple
others (certainly not comprehensive) to see what other operating systems
they advertise on their sites:
