Sorry, but that line really did elicit an audible laugh.
Tell that to my dad when he goes to use turbo tax or plugs in a camcorder. Or even just tries to open MS Office documents from his grad students. A few hundred extra bucks ensures that his tools work as expected.
Linux has been
almost good enough for the desktop every year of it's existence.
With that said, I use it at work on our servers and the thin-clients on our production floor. Works great for those applications. No taxes, home-movies, or MS office documents (etc) involved.
