Until Microsoft steals the idea and makes their own, as has been done with many products. They will then package it with the next OS release, and then all the windows users will use it, and Linux will no longer have the advantage.
I use Linux because it's powerful, and I enjoy learning new things, but I don't feel that Linux is quite ready for the regular home user who has problems just logging onto the internet. I can see the near future being a combination of OS's with Linux running all the backend/server hardware, and Windows being placed on all the desktops. I think if Microsoft stripped down their OS so that it came with ONLY the OS, and it was small, fast, efficient and non bloated, you would see a lot more of that thing. But we all know that Microsoft isn't as smart as us, so I'm living in a pipe dream :) All IMVHO.
