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.
"I've got games from about 96/97/98 that still work absolutely fine."
And I've got a couple of games and some language training software that DOES NOT work in XP, no matter what I try. 98, ME or 2000, all worked fine (although I wouldn't even recommend ME to my worst enemy...)
