I am constantly amused about how "next year" has been "the year of Linux on the desktop" for 20+ years. Meanwhile, Linux & BSD have pretty much completely taken over the whole world except the desktop in that same time.

You want Microsoft to go out of business, you monster?

I'd take MS 10x in the butt over Crapple taking over the desktop-market completely. You know what no-competition means for us, yes? And no, Linux is NOT an alternative for everything for everyone. And there probably never will be a linux-desktop-for-the-masses coming right into your supermarket/pc-store.
