Comment Linux was never a desktop OS to begin with... (Score 1) 553
Who ever said Linux was supposed to be a desktop OS? It sucks when it comes to that realm, but it rocks as a development and server oriented OS.
My linux box serves as a print server for my G4 PowerMac (I won't buy another printer), a private ftp and http server (for web development), and a programming workstation (for my CISE degree classes).
If I want a desktop OS, I'll use my Mac. If I want a server, I'll use my Linux box. Plain and simple.
