My brother works for a digital signage company here in Sweden and combined with my experiences in IT I would say there simply isn't enough competence.
On one hand it scares companies because they think they can't find Linux people when they need them.
On the other hand the universities are crunching out .NET and Java coders who have no ideological reason to use Linux.
Something that could fill the niche here is open software platforms for digital signage. Because the more user friendly Linux gets, the more I'm seeing of it in Enterprise environments. So if only someone could make the Fedora or Ubuntu of digital signage using open source.
