Very true, and I see Linux fragmentation become more and more of a problem. Many people would like to move off Windows for all kinds of reasons, it's just that the thousands of Linux distros just don't seem to want that business. Go figure! Luckily we are in a franchising business, so we can control out deployment OS with some control. We motivate our franchisees to use Ubuntu if they decide to go the Linux route. At least that way our support staff can help them for free. > Linux unification is IMHO further away then in the 1997-2000 timeframe. I agree. Some things have improved, but others have not. And with every Tom, Dick and Harry wanting his own "distro" doesn't help the cause much.
