And with Dell and Canonical working together, it seems only a matter of
time before time before the tide shifts. In the meantime, there is still

I am sure that will someday too. ;-) The wheels of free software change
turn slowly, but once changes occur, there's no turning back.
I was thinking that 2003 would have been the year of the Linux desktop.
