Re: "Desktop users threaten Linux viability"

Heh,


The same communities who code the servers also code the desktop
experience. The desktop users won't code their own desktops because
they're not programmers. This doesn't make them "bad" - it just "is".

I'm not entirely certain whether desktop users threaten Linux's viability
as a server operating system however what a desktop user wants and a
server system administrator wants are sufficiently contrary to each other
as to create a need to compromise.
