This may or may not be public opinion, but I think the main barrier to
our entry is the lack of a finanacial application that can do what
Quicken does (or a collection of tools/scripts/utilities to provide the
equivalent functionality). That, coupled with an Office compatible
program such as StarOffice, could very well be the leaping block that
prepels us onto the generic user desktop.
Plus, advanced functions for Webmain/Linuxconf are required so that
regular non-geeks can modify their systems easily.
YMMV and the opinions expressed are those of the author alone.
