With all due respect to the author, the argument is based on the assumption that we want to be mainstreram, that we want everybody and their grandmother to be running Linux. Personally, I don't. Why? Because inevitably software manufacturers will dumb down Linux to the point where the protections cease to be relevant. People will be running their computers 100 percent of the time in root mode because they can't be bothered with the hassle of using 'su' when and only when they really need to upgrade something. Part of the reason why I believe Linux has been insulated from so many worms and virii and other things is the crucial part between the keyboard and the chair; the user that understands not to open every attachment they get, to be wary of phishing scams and whatnot. Is that being elitist? Maybe. But maybe I want to keep what is unique in the Linux world unique. In as far as multimedia support, yeah, SuSE doesn't have that out of the box. You know how long it takes for me to set it up? 2 minutes. And for that little inconvenience Novell and others don't have to ratchet up the price of every Linux shipment out there. Those that want to make linux mainstream have their points, and I respect them.
