Or maybe now that RH is in IBM's fold... perhaps you guys can devise a way of making money and providing a top notch Linux (Wayland based of course) desktop experience.
I don't see why Linux can't be equally good as OSX or Windows for desktop apps.. it's just that no one's been willing to put some serious effort in it. By no one, I mean corporations that can devote a large chunk of time/money to developing it, even if it's an afterthought to another money making product to keep the company alive....
Linux is super mature, super widespread.. on the server....but now it's time RH, Microsoft, IBM, whomever to make some waves on the desktop without destroying altruism.
