After reading this, I am reminded of a grim fact someone told me a few weeks ago.
" Linux is just not spreading like fire. Linux users are forever flooded with Linux news, distros and advocacies and so they think that everyone is hearing about Linux news, distros, advocacies.
But in reality, no one pays a damn to it!"
At that moment, I wanted to punch that guy but after reading this, I realise, he was somehow correct. And that Linux is not going many places.
My personal view why it is not going everywhere is the
a) enormous amnt of distros each with its personal problems<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:D b) a community forever fighting between KDE vs. Gnome and distro-wars
Dont get me wrong! I am trying to be +ve but unless we cross these hurdles [IMHO] Linux wont go many places
