This is a plant by some Linux shill. Real Torvaldsian answers include calling people morons and telling them that they should just die.

"Shareseller value": noun; the real reason people buy shares, which is to sell them at a profit; opposite of "shareholder value", which is the diminishing value of shares held by someone who has been duped into believing that investing in the stock market will make his or her retirement pecunious.

Let me do what I want: LXDE.
Hey hippy, get your tent off of my lawn!
I happen to own a Samsung Galaxy Note tablet-phone, and I think it's perfect kit for travel. But I do agree with PCM2. Even if you happen to enjoy coding very much, coding isn't as much fun as living. And life is short.
I usually cobble together old hardware and software unless a product is so good that I think it's worth the money. The Samsung Galaxy Note is expensive, but it *is* brilliant. I've had mine for a month and I use it for SMS, reading, Web browsing, notes and doodling, and the occasional telephone call.
I haven't used the cameras and cannot comment about them. The only criticism I could possibly make would be that the battery only lasts a few days if I disable data transmission.
The rest now use KDE, XFCE, or a variety of apps under some standalone window manager.
My interest in Gnome was killed by the uselessness of Compiz, long before Gnome 3 was a sprite in the eye of any delusional developer.
I switched from Gnome 2 to LXDE (Fedora, Lubuntu). LXDE is simple, easy to tweak, and does what it is supposed to do. I don't even care what happens with Gnome. First they chased all the users with four video cards and four LCDs, then they chased all the users with tablets.
I have never, not even for five minutes, liked KDE. Some kManner of kRevulsion.
Maybe Gnome 3, KDE, and Unity will find success. Unlike you, the only prophesy I will hazard is that banks will make money hand over fist while working people lose.
The same thing is happening with Firefox, too. The productive users are fleeing it because the failed web designers
The recent UI dross that has been added to Firefox is of no use to me (nor to most people, I believe). However, it is still possible to ignore the UI dross and use Firefox productively.
Useless features could be a sign of delusional product management or developers living in their typical reality distortion field. Or both.
I think Firefox's release numbering is a bigger problem.
Although I do like the functionality of Gnome 2.x and have been a long-time Gnome user, I recently switched my Linux boxen to LXDE (Fedora and Lubuntu).
LXDE is fast and configurable.
You?
There is a fanatically liberal, pro-western slant to topics and opinions to the point where innovations, tech, or ideas originating in "the enemy camp" (Chinese, GOP, etc.) is regarded with derision.
I am not a USian and so tremendous explosive pressure threatens to alter my cranial structure when I read the above sentence.
Fanaticism itself is a bad thing by definition. But what is a "fanatical liberal"? I infer that it is someone who favours the "West" and fears both the Chinese and the US Republican Party (GOP).
OS X needs one, comprehensive package-management tool.
I will add one more point:
* Better package management for UNIX/FOSS development. As much as I want to like OS X for development, it can't compare to any Debian-based Linux distribution using apt-get.
And it should be the law: If you use the word `paradigm' without knowing what the dictionary says it means, you go to jail. No exceptions. -- David Jones
