I've only been using GNU/Linux since 2001, so I won't say that I'm by any means an expert yet, as most of those that are reading this, probably have been using Linux much longer than I have. However, I still have high hopes for the Linux scene. The purpose of this article is to voice my personal opinion on what I feel is keeping GNU/Linux from taking over the mainstream operating system market. My intentions aren't to "badtalk" the open source kernel+apps, but rather give constructive criticsm on what I personally feel it could be done better.

Unless a universal installer/package format is created and other distros adopt/support this. No it will not get sorted out. This has been an issue for a long time. And it has yet to get sorted out. Another huge issue being the Disto of the week may not use RPM's or .DEBS. Distros grow in popularity and then fall. It's like an ocean swell. You may start supporting a distro when it's almost at it's peak(if you're lucky) and then it falls in popularity and eveyrone moves on to the next weekly craze. You obviously Fail to see this.
