As a system administrator, I have used Windows on the desktop since 2.0 and used to run Windows XP at home for my family. I use Linux and Windows servers at work and prefer (Red Hat) Linux for its security, stability and usefulness in a company with a diminishing IT budget. More than a year ago I started experimenting with Linux as a desktop solution and after installing and using more than 7 different distros along with many various versions of those distros, I found a distro that is doing everything its suppose to do, right out of the box. I'm talking about the pleasantly suprising Lindows 4.0.

lindows, mr. robertson, their businessmodel and their position regarding the oss-community or not, it's obvious that they have understood what it takes to make linux a success on everyones desktop, and that's ease-of-use and integration. it's time for the classic vendors like suse, mandrake and first and foremost red hat to wake up and compete (i think it's a big mistake of especially red hat to abandon the homemarket and concentrating solely on the corporate one)!
otherwise, in a not too distant future, lindows might be a synonym for linux on (endusers-)desktop which would imo be very sad!
