[Opinion] Switch to Linux? No. Get a Mac Clone.

| And to finish this article, Kudos to Linux. I get two reactions when
| people look at the desktop on my Laptop and Desktop. One is.. "Er.. is
| that a Mac?" and the other is "Why don't you just buy a Mac?". Well
| kudos is due, because I don't NEED to buy a Mac. I can get the Mac
| look and feel, which I like, and the massive productivity boost of
| the desktop cube ( and enjoyable extras ) even on my three year
| old HP laptop.

The last Linux adoption barrier is marketing
,----[ Quote ]
| IBM gave us the Linux boy” ads. Like all IBM ads, they are convoluted and
| make little sense. Frankly, those ads would have been better suited for
| Wikipedia. A little boy swiftly absorbing the wisdom, advice, and information
| of the ages? Yeah, Wikipedia ad, but at the end of the ad, I would have no
| idea what Linux is.
