RE: Linux on the desktop is for geeks not everyday users.

So, are they planning to make it more user friendly to make it appeal more widely, or is the target customer always going to be limited to geeks?

I’d really like to see a viable challenge to the over 90% dominance of Windows on the desktop.

I can’t see them ever fixing that issue with Linux. The issue is geeks will always push different things and they will never agree on one or even two flavors of Linux. So there is no way for them to fix this and run applications natively. OSX is the only option to windows that is end-user friendly.
