I don't want Linux to "work" on all computers. Rather I want to "RUN" Linux on all of my computers - for business, personal, and entertainment purposes. It doesn't matter if Linux will "work" on my computer, if I can't open a file or play any game I want. When we can drop in a Linux box and do any of the above, THEN we have succeeded.
I glossed over the details, but of course I'm referring to the legal issues of watching a DVD, playing a DirectX based game, seamless use of .docx files, etc. - And I don't consider using Wine or a VM to do any of that to be a viable solution. Yes, they may work, but they kind of avoid the real problem... Of course, I'm being overly anal here for arguments sake... :)
How CLUG can help achieve this vision, I have no clue. But, talking about the topic(s) is a start. :)
