Other OS's.

[QUOTE=deker]That's nice axiom, but that is still confusing as hell. I'm a computer nerd, and I don't even want to know or care about all that stuff. And since the goal of most linux people seems to be to get everyone else to use linux, i'm just saying it's not going to happen. they might as well just focus on making it more nerdy, not more easy to use, 'cause it's just never going to go mainstream.[/QUOTE]

It is going mainstream (some distros - not all of them). I get annoyed myself by Linux zealots who proclaim reightousness (sp?) in the OS world. But I am happy to see it giving other "purchased" OS's some competition...
