Ignore number 2?
>> "One thing that was not mentioned or asked:
What about Linux?" said William Hurley, an
analyst with the Enterprise Strategy Group. "The
brushing-over on this topic was disappointing
since the vast majority of customers who operate
either Windows or Solaris also use Linux."

Actually, Linux wasn't completely ignored.
McNealy conspicuously omitted it from a list of
operating systems he predicts will have
long-term viability. >>

By all means, ignore Linux. Head in the sand.
Good strategy.
