Admittedly everything sounds on the mark, I just have to say that I could
justify some of the problems/solutions one of my client has to go through in
Linux to use it as their desktop. There is no way I could justify spending
3 hours of downloads and installs to get a new application to work when
adding a new one to M$ wouldn't take any of that. If they have the same
problems, they do a good job of masking it. If I get something that says it
runs on win2k, I run install and it is done. I think this is the biggest
hurdle for Linux. That is for it to take over the world and all. For me to
use it..here I am.
