IBM Says the Time for Desktop Linux Is at Hand
Earlier this week, IBM and several Linux distributors disclosed their intentions
to release "Microsoft-free personal computing choices." Interesting
timing, given Microsoft's struggles with Vista.
But check out Gartner analyst Michael Silver's catalog
of reasons that it's not yet the time for a Linux-based desktop to catch
on.
I have to say I find Silver's structural analysis pretty compelling.
