*nix on the desktop by mikosullivan2001-02-22 06:30:09

I agree here. It's almost for this single reason that I prefer Novell over *nix for a main NOS. It's got a nifty (albeit sometimes unreliable) program called 'salvage' that users can use themselves. As far as putting it on the desktop, I do not see that ever happening. Ever. Not only does it have a reputation as being a geeks-only OS, it really is too much for the average user. Imagine the cost of training all of corporate America in how to use some *nix GUI instead of Windows, and migrating data into *nix-compatible programs...it's an unrealistic dream.
