Linux Is Not "I-Cant-Believe-Its-Not-Windows!"
Every now and then I'm shocked from my usual shell of cynical apathy when a sign of intelligent life is spotted elsewhere in the technology district of Blogistan. Such a blip passed by radar a couple weeks back when Matt Hartley of Datamation arrived at the question Does Being Competitive with Windows Matter?
You know, it is damn frustrating being me, because I've spent a big chunk of five years on a blog just howling these ideas at the wind and watching almost nobody comprehend them. Then somebody else finally gets it, and gee, even then the concept is only party fleshed out and the readers only partly comprehend it, and then after two weeks the debate has moved back to the usual run-of-the-mill babble. Hey, thanks, Renaissance, see you in another five years!
There's a saving grace, though. Events outside of the Windows-vs-Linux-on-the-desktop have moved on to change the field.
