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.

Let's just stop these 'Linux on the desktop'-articles.
If you like using Linux, use it. If you like Windows better, use Windows. If you like Mac OSX better, use that. If you like BSD, BeOS, ... (you get the picture, right?)
Why would you want to 'convert' people? Why do you even care! If (you think that) your OS is better, well, that's too bad for all the others then, because they don't know what they're missing. But why would you even care about them?
(and no, I'm not a Windows user. Nor am I a Linux user. Not OS X either.)
