It's easy to win a battle when only one side thinks there's a war. It's a matter of finding the right tool for the job, not about the code base.

There are two aspects. There is using the right tool for the job, that's one piece. But there is also making sure that the right piece has its code open. That's where open source is winning. The percentage of "right pieces" is becoming more and more open.
Both sides definitely think that it is a war. Did you miss SCO?
