Lately, there has been a "Why linux isn't ready for the desktop" article every 3 days. Most of the time, these articles originate from a lack of understanding or acceptance of the open source system. I'd like to try to address some of the common arguments against linux here, and try to help people understand why linux probably won't be on your desktop for a while.

Maybe Linux just isn't the best OS to use if you're looking for a desktop OS. Personally, I think BeOS (ie, OpenBeOS) would be a better choice to convince people to move to.
Especially if there's a strong focus on portability between Linux and OpenBeOS.
