Lately, we've all read a lot of articles about desktop Linux - so many that it's getting hard to tell them apart. One says "Why Linux Sucks," the next "My Success With Linux." Even Michael Robertson of Lindows.com joined the fun with his "Why Desktop Linux Sucks, Today." But very few people have proposed anything radical, and I believe that's what's needed to take GNU/Linux to the next level.

Not trolling here, but it sounds like a free version of Mac OS X. Based on FreeBSD, cleaner filesystem, drag and drop installs, etc. And in my opinion this is great! A free Mac OS X-like OS that runs on x86 hardware is a sure winner. However, ask Apple how long, and how expensive it was to develop Max OS X, and you'll see why it's not free.
