  I hate to say it but theBlueSmokeBand is right about mostly everything. Linux on the desktop won't happen before the paradigm changes. Better to think about the next generation of computers-- the micro edition.
  
  I use windows at work as a web developer and I have (finally) been windows free for almost 2 years now at home. But make no mistake! The problems I have using linux productively (Mandrake 92) can be infuriating at times, and I cannot envision the time when corporate people that slightly dislike using computers in the first place will ever start using one where they ever, ever, have to call up the command line.
  
  Typically, even a requirement to make temporary changes to their 'hosts' file generates a *firestorm* of email complaints.
