"Experts say that migrations from Unix to Linux have slowed down because all the low-hanging fruit has now been picked. Linux growth in the U.S. x86 server market has, over the past six quarters, started to falter and reverse its positive course relative to Windows Server and the market as a whole." More here.

But i belive that after some time, when management tools with the style of Active Directory, Group Policy etc... are stock standard for linux, things will change.
You say this as if producing graphical management tools is easy. Guess what? There's nothing around.
I have some bias, but i think that Ubuntu will get this going well before the rest if looking at their desktop distro is anything to go by.
Ubuntu haven't got a snowball in hell's chabce of doing this. They've produced nothing approaching MMC, and quite frankly, their GUI tools are not up to the job. If Red Hat hasn't been able to do it after a decade, I fail to see what Ubuntu are doing differently.
