"Desktop Linux is almost soup. We only have a few items left on the short list. Will we do it? If history is an indicator, the answer is yes." Read this article at LXer. Read more for a short list of my personal needs before I could say "yes, I can switch to Linux or FreeBSD full time".

11. Better CD-RW/DWD burning software (yep, K3b is quite good though)
12. Better scanner support and software
However, personally I already use Linux practically exclusively for all desktop work at home. But I know well that many people couldn't do the same yet.
But at companies and organizations with enough IT support staff, Linux is already quite a viable choice for work desktops. The recent news about the many decisions to switch to Linux from all over the world prove that.
