"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".

> How could they if you haven't paid IP rights for developers:) If not, then you should bug M$ for WMP and Apple for QtP (Linux versions)
You have completely lost the plot. I don't care if MS/Apple are going to port their apps or we have to use mplayer codecs forever. What I am after is a SOLUTION that works. Be it one way or another. I don't mind which solution, just a solution. Remember, the article is about what I need before I can switch to Unix, it's not about mplayer in particular, it's about "whatever works for me, it's good enough".
