Linux is ugly and Emacs is useless on 99.999% of computers because of the Lack of a meta key.

While I understand that you're saying this mostly to prove a point, hoping to get literary style plus points with your contrast sway, I hardly think what you're saying is accurate. Beauty for me is what works, and from where I am, I'm pretty okay with what I use. I for one use GNU/Linux for my desktop setup. It's highly functional, minimalist, really fast, and not ugly at all. See what I mean. (That's just to show what I run in one screenshot. Normally, I separate all that into multiple desktops (which is hardly as easy to work out in other OSes), so my workplace is nicely set up.) If you know what you want, there's nothing to stop you from getting it with GNU/Linux.

Also, your comment on Emacs is ridiculous. 1.) The lack of the meta key to which you refer is greatly exagerrated. On PCs, which no doubt constitute the huge majority of computers nowadays, it's often the ALT key. 2.) You can press escape to invoke the same function as with the meta key (i.e. esc-x does the same thing as M-x) And 3.) anyway, the "meta key" can be mapped to any other key convenient for you.
