The battle rages on the figure out this problem. While I make it known I am a Mac user I am also a big fan of Linux and evangelis on Ubuntu to anyone who will listen.

We all can agree that Windows is largely accepted and largely hated all at the same time. For the most part it is disliked for all the right reasons. I can and will help anyone out who wants to transition from Windows to some other platform.

I take the argument that Linux us better than MacOSX. I find that odd. I think Linux as far as usability has exceeded Windows and can take it on in most common situations. I would like however for Linux to take a look at the biggest issue and that is ease of use. MacOSX has embodied ease of use and had made the OS very simple. It also doe snot take a MIT grad to help you get things working and the integration between apps is remarkable. I would push anyone who is struggling with this question about how to make Linux the best it can be would to take a look at MacOSX and start emulating it's strong points. Ease of Use and Integration between apps. We need to make this ever so simple and ever so strong all at the same time.

Let's start talking how we make Linux the OS better and stop talking about how much we hate Windows. Making Linux better will only force Microsoft hand. It will create movement towards Linux and away from Windows. It's all about fostering Linux and letting Microsoft fall to the way side.
