[NTLUG:Discuss] Is Linux Ready for the desktop now?

[Newsletters]

Hi,

Over a year ago, I read many postings on this maillist about how Linux 
wasn't ready for the desktop.  I am just wondering at this time is Linux 
now ready for the desktop?  If not, what does it need to be ready for 
the desktop?  <I hope I don't see a lot of Linux isn't yet emulating 
windows answers>.  Anyhow, I'm just very curious what the responses 
would be today...

Thanks in advance for any responses...
