According to Canonical head honcho Mark Shuttleworth, Windows 7 presents the ideal opportunity for Linux to gain significant inroads into the desktop market. He said so in an interview with InternetNews. While I certainly do hope so, an eerie sense of deja vu creeps up on me: isn't this like the 923298th opportunity where Linux is supposed to make inroads into the desktop market?

Wouldn't full hardware support of graphics cards be the hurdle that needs to be overcome for Linux and *BSD to truly advance? I know there are a lot of cards that have various amounts of support, but having full support for 2D and 3D acceleration would open a lot of doors for FOSS "professional" applications.
