This filmfest is neat but you've said yourself that Linux isn't friendly for the consumer and apparently the 2% infiltration rate agrees with you. so you're one of those 2%'ers, big whoop! I know. IT'S FREE.

Wow the guy that did the video should do his research ... everything he said can also be done on in OSX .... the Darwin Kernal runs on all the platforms he mentioned.
Well, we're getting use to it but again you're not paying attension or have a retension problem. It can't be me because I have bought one in a long time and I'm bald, but don't let the truth and facts in the way of a good fantasy, Woodie.
LOL!
Couldn't help it rocky. He just exhibited that same excited Mac foanboiesque demeanor you possess!
Dude! Figured it HAD to be you!....
I suspected that also but the clip creator didn't want that to get in the way of the ax he had to grind!...
Well, again you're wrong, but we're getting use to it.LOL!

Just trying to awaken you from your Apple stupor....
Don't follow the sheeple....
Yep IBM supports Linux ... as long as you use their software stack..... which means u need IBM support ...... definitely not free
Ubuntu Linux Now Over 12 Million Users Strong
The best thing that ever happened to Linux might have been Windows Vista. It also hasn't hurt matters that Ubuntu continues to make the open-source side of the fence more accessible to new users. While Windows 7 more than makes up for Vista's woes, there are now 12 million users rocking Ubuntu

My suspicion is that we are moving beyond the desktop environment (as you pointed out with clouds or whatever that is) and that it's too late for Linux on the desktop to make much more headway. Win 7 seems to work great...OS X is strong and will probably keep up some momentum...I don't see how Linux/Ubuntu will be more than just a minor fringe OS.
Hey, look at one of the comments in response to that MaxPC article:
I am useing Ubuntu 9.10 on a dual boot. Windows 7 is still there because of the games. That is the one this that will keep Linux number down, that and the poor support for video drivers. Still having issue with openSUSE insrtall because if rthe ATI drivers.
Poor support for video drivers?
Then the next guy says that his Lucid install went "wonky" when he was using it or starting up. LOL!!!

Used openSUSE for a few months to see what KDE was all about. Had no problem with my Toshiba ATI drivers. All played well. Liked openSUSE but went back to Ubuntu because openSUSE back then required more tweaking than Ubuntu.
True! That's about the time I decided to try Fedora.
Was thinking back then about getting a Mac because of all the flack Vista was getting but come to think of it most of the flack came from the Mac camp. Anyway, a buddy at work said before you go and blow all that money on a pricey Mac, give Linux a try it's free. I did and that was the BEST advice he ever gave me. I tried Linux and haven't looked back since!...
