Eeeh... proprietary UNIX *is* the dominant platform in the business computing market. It has been for a while and SUN is leading the pack.
I do think however MS should have been destroyed by the legal system and the fact that that hasn't happened might have serious consequences for UNIX or Linux in the long run.

There are three companies who's primary business is proprietary UNIX: SCOX, SUNW, and SGI. Take a look at their finacial fundamentals, then you tell me.IBM and HP are big UNIX companies, but IBM and HP are also very diversified.
