„Hah! If you want to see the barrier to desktop Linux's acceptance, watch over my shoulder one day as I try to use KDE or Gnome to do ordinary tasks such as keeping my MP3 player running if any other sound is emitted (oh yeah, guessing which processes are audio ones so that I can then manually Kill them hoping that I got the right one is reaaaal user friendly) or downloading and installing a new application. Fabulous end user experiences. Lord love Linux and godspeed to it, but desktop Linux is so Windows 3.0.“
