Its my opinion that linux must appeal more to the masses if it is to succeed. I applaud Lindows, Licorice, Yoper, etc. These windows - like os let people get their feet wet. Lets face facts - we like the challenge of linux as something new and ground - breaking. But most people just want to get goin with no fuss or bother - they dont want to install nvidia drivers to get 3d acceleration, they dont have time to learn vi and vim, and they sure as heck dont want a hassle downloading and installing their fave programs. We get mad at Microsofts bs and politics, but darn, its one heckava os. Dont get me wrong - I love linux - but I love the variety and versatility of Windows.
