Lets first start here. Linux is not for the masses. Again, the new
mantra: Linux is not for the masses.

I say the above as one who enjoys Linux. Unless or until there is access
in Xwindows there is so much truth to what he says. Java-script is not an
evil plot. It will not go away. There are good reasons for it. But aside
from all that, Linux still won't be for the masses.

Guess what? There are things that are easier in windows. And I say that as
someone who knows a lot of what he is doing in both places.
