It seems to me that a lot of attention lately in the commercial Linux development area has concentrated on either large enterprise customers, or wooing the home user who can barely turn a computer on. Even distros claiming to offer the perfect solution for both ends of the spectrum don't quite seem to fit what I am looking for.

The first major one is he was trying to use a desktop Linux distro without broadband. While in theory, it would be nice for this to work, it is not the reality. It leads to endless frustrations, and at best, an unreliable and painfully slow connection. That is not Lindows' (or Linux's) fault, but the connection's.
Actually he cited a specific problem with Lindows' upgrade process, their server does not support resuming, and that was the extent of his complaint. I didn't see the author complaining about how slow the download was..
