Linux is a kernel (Score 1)

Linux is a kernel. It is up to the X.org people and window managers to worry about the desktop. However, I can't see Linux on the desktop being very important. There isn't any reason why Windows can't be on the desktop. Let Linux do what it was designed to do and use a tool that is better for the job do the job. In that case, Windows is that tool. Conversely, let Linux/*BSD/Solaris/Other related be on the server and not Windows.
