The Linux Desktop - The View from LinuxCon
,----[ Quote ]
| Clearly IT, especially those in the desktop space, is
| looking at, if not an inflection point, then certainly
| the beginning of sea change. There is no question that
| the definition of a desktop is undergoing a change as
| more and more companies rethink the necessity to put a
| machine under each desk. Data breaches, maintenance
| costs, changing device preferences and increased
| connection speeds are making us consider the solutions
| we are asked to present; as maintenance and installation
| costs become the long pole in the budget tent, anything
| that we can do to shorten that pole is good. And a Linux
| desktop, whatever that means, is certainly going to play
| a big role providing those solutions.

Should Operating Systems Be Intuitive?
,----[ Quote ]
| How do operating systems and breastfeeding figure in the
| same discussion? One is intuitive and the other isn't --
| or neither is, or both ought to be, depending on your
| point of view (and perhaps how your mother fed you).

Ubuntu to make Linux application installation idiot proof
,----[ Quote ]
| There's really nothing that hard about installing programs on Linux. Anyone
| who still uses shell commands like say, "apt-get install
| some-program-or-the-other," is doing so because they want to do it that way,
| not because they have to. Programs like Debian and Ubuntu's Synaptic,
| Fedora's yum or openSUSE's YaST makes installing programs little more than a
| matter of point and click. Still, some people have trouble, so Ubuntu is
| reviving a dusty, old project, AppCenter so that anyone can install Linux
| programs.
