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.

I agree, these narticles aren't very useful or informative. Linux will work well for people who wish to use it. If you require a Windows only application, then it obviously is not the choice for you.
The OS a person uses is largely due to taste and availablity. If Microsoft were able to stop people from pirating it's OS, a lot more people would be tasting alternatives.
