Having read about a lot of problems and heard a lot of complaints I am
now finding myself wondering
if I could genuinely recommend GNU/Linux as a desktop OS to any non
geeky user.
I personally think that if this trend continues popularising GNU/Linux
to the masses is going to be very difficult.
I do say GNU/Linux because the problem is not kernel based so it isn't
really a Linux problem.
It is a GNU problem.
