摘要
The network externalities hypothesis is tested in two software market segments, one dominated by priced products (Windows web servers) and the other dominated by free products (UNIX web servers). We examined data samples of commercial Web servers from August 1995 to February 1997. The results suggest that network externalities were present in markets where priced products dominate, however markets where free products dominate did not exhibit network externalities.
