<quote> The Linux distribution scene is a complete mess. Apart from the kernel everything including the desktop is fractured and fragmented. This situation is not good for business as it confuses both customers and third party application vendors. To strengthen its position in the operating system market, Linux needs to present a nice and coherent facade. </quote>
Since when did choice, and the freedom to make that choice become a bad thing? For me, Linux is all about choice. It's the choice not to have to use Windows, not to have to pay high prices for a commercial OS, and the choice to use the software that you want to use. You have the choice to use KDE, Gnome, or one of many other WM's/DE's, the choice to use OpenOffice, Gnome Office, KOffice, or even MS Office (amoung others), etc. Without these choices Linux would loose much of it's appeal. So I say keep up the good work to all the developers who are working on Open Source software. I for one hope that the Linux world doesn't become consolidated so that we are left with on DE running on one distro.
