“How is the Linux desktop market progressing
today?“Tony Iams: Well, slowly. It has been
progressing slowly. Every year seems to be the year where
widespread adoption of Linux on the desktop is just around the
corner. What is clear is from a technology standpoint is that some
amazing progress has been made. If you look at the capabilities of
desktop Linux today in terms of ease-of-use, in terms of the
productivity applications that are available, it’s very clear that
the development community has invested huge resources in delivering
something that is usable by typical end users. There are some
terrific Linux desktop products out there today. What I still don’t
see emerging quite yet is widespread demand. But clearly there are
some users that are very interested in running Linux on the
desktop…”
