The Desktop or the Browser: Is the Netbook Escalating the Battle?

,----[ Quote ]
| Devices with small screens will ultimately make the desktop experience better 
| for everyone but only if we deliver applications that make the experience 
| better. A desktop and a browser are not enough. "Web applications" that you 
| access through the browser are not enough. We need applications that take 
| advantage of the power the desktop has to offer.

At the expense of GNU/Linux.

,----[ Quote ]
| It all occurred in a government department where an IT lady had a great idea
| about converting their computers to GNU/Linux. Let's call her Gillian.
| Gillian was assigned to research GNU/Linux and found out that it would meet
| all the needs her department required and could be easily used instead of
| Microsoft Windows. Moreover, this switch to open source software would save
| them a lot of money. Gillian made a nice proposition outlined in a paper that
| documented all the steps she and her IT coworkers needed to take for this
| transition to happen. A lot of people liked her idea and thought it was
| feasible. Gillian even managed to convince the higher-ups who thought it was
| a good idea as well. However, like in all bureaucracies large or small, she
| still needed to get approval from the management.
