If “The Linux desktop has been superior since its early days” then it should have dominated in the marketplace?

Which are more popular--The Chevys/Fords or the Mercedes/Maybachs?

Which are better?

Popularity does not indicate quality.

I don’t agree with your comparison.

If a driver had to adjust the alignment and tweak the engine timing every time they drive the maybach or mercedes wouldn’t be popular.

Linux is going strong in the marketplace where it is doing a good job, the server space. In the desktop arena its not doing so well.
