Some? Its 3 million embedded Linux gadgets sold PER DAY.

Define failure.
In terms of raw speed, Linux desktop is the fastest of all OSes.
In terms of application speeds, Linux desktops always wins.
That is success!!
In terms of open source and access to source code,
again Linux desktop is a success.
Linux adoption rate is 1 million new Linux desktops per week.
That sure sounds like success to me again.

You want to show some figures here. You saying doesn't make it so.
You're not important. Don't you know that you are not important?

You keep saying this and you have been saying it for a long time, years.
According to your retarded posts, everyone should be using Linux by now.
Where are the numbers (on paper from a honest source) to back you up.

If you took a dump in the toilet, that would be a success for you too,
because you keep trying to dump the same old crap.

If the context is general user systems - desktops - you are simply far off
topic.

Great pop song! Very catchy - see how well it stuck with you? I bet you'd
give your left nut/breast to have written it (royalties and all).
And George Michael is (or was) a fantastic artist. He composes and arranges
and writes songs and used to have an absolutely beautiful voice. It's still
good, but not strong and rangey like 15 years ago.

Alright, I'll admit it's a catchy tune and Geroge Michael had some good
stuff.
Just don't tell my musician friends.
Too many times playing it in wedding bands and on Karaoke CDs has left me
with a strong dislike for certain tunes.
Here is a short list:
We've Only Just Begun.
Wind Beneath My Wings.
Anything Kenny G does.
Anything Michael Bolton does.
The Electric Slide.
Limbo
Stairway to heaven.
The Wedding Song
Fur Elise
....and my all time most hated song........
"You Light Up My Life".......
Followed closely by Tomorrow from Annie which back in the 70's I must have
played 8 million times when I was moonlighting as rehearsal/audition
pianist for shows in production.
At one time I think every snot nosed little kid used that tune as their
audition piece. I even had a list of replies when the stage mother would
ask me how her little "Susie" did.
1. Madam, your daughter's singing brings tears to my eyes.
2. I've never heard it chanted quite like that before.
3. Your daughter has the gift of being able to sing in several keys at
once.
4. Did your daughter study with Streisand? (She should).
5. The Steinway is a little out of tune today. It's not your daughter.
6 Maybe she can get a part in Mumanshanz (a mime show running on Broadway
at the time. ie:no speaking or singing.) I can't spell it.

Exactly what? So what if all of that works on Windows? It works on Linux
systems.

I was playing golf at North Fulton municipal course the same summer evening
he was performing at the nearby outdoor Chastain Amphitheater in suburban
Atlanta. You could hear his voice from practically a half-mile away.

OK. How do we ensure that there's only one distro, and only one
installation method? Give us something to work with here... ;-)
Even Vista has 9 versions (if one counts N and Starter).
