[ Thanks to James Maguire for this link. ]

"How many times have we as desktop Linux users been asked if this is the "year of the Linux desktop?" Too many times I'd imagine.

"Even worse, we still calculate the value of using Linux based on some phantom number that is frankly impossible to measure. As regular users of the desktop Linux, many of us don't care what kind of market penetration is taking place. It's less about a race to the finish and more about the reason we're running in the first place."
