We still don't have something as good as windows? 02 February 2010 02:38
"But free software must take some of the blame too. After all, the
GNU project is 25 years old, and yet we still don't have a free
desktop system that is even as good as Windows, let alone Apple's
indubitably more polished approach. Call it arrogance, call it
incompetence, it is, in any case, an undeniable failure."
Mr. Moody, please! You might not like KDE 4.3, but it is way better
than Windows, even Windows 7. The free software desktop does not end
with GNOME. Therefore, I assert that your contention that having a
desktop system as "an undeniable failure" is dead wrong.
Other than that... a great article. We need more of those insights.
