The past is not nearly as important as the future. (Score 1)

10 years ago was about the time I got my first computer. It was a 386SX/20 that came preloaded with Windows 3.0 (not 3.1!) and MS-DOS. Since then I've gone on to use Windows 3.1, 95, 98, 2000 and now XP. In my heart, I would love to use Linux, however it just doesn't have all of the applications that I would like to use. However, it's getting closer. So, I haven't used Linux full time yet. However, with many products becoming more mature that run on Linux, I feel that I may switch to using Linux full time within the next 10 years. I think that when that point in time when the switch is an obvious one for hold-outs like myself, there is going to be exponential growth. For those of you working to make Linux software reach this point.. God speed! I'll see you in 10 years. (maybe sooner)
