secondo me siamo a buon punto, e con ancora un po’ di intesa collettiva da parte di noi utilizzatori di linux e un po’ di (mal)sana concorrenza di apple con macbook a prezzi stracciati e l’accattivante stabilità di mac os x, riusciremo a destabilizzare per sempre windows, facendogli ricordare il suo posto (cit. know your place - rosario + vampire), cioè quello dei computer per bambini (senza togliere nulla ai bambini ;) ), e finalmente eliminare il bug numero 1!
quindi coraggio, ancora un po’ di lavoro di proselitismo, perchè in questi ultimi due anni i sondaggi ci danno ragione, vedendo soprattutto VISTA, crollare sotto la decima posizione tra i sistemi operativi più usati..
