While network transparency is great, it's top heavy and complex API and implemention do not help linux gain any ground on the wider desktop market at all. Steve Jobs may be a tyrant but he understands technology like no one, that's why he dumped X and went with his own graphical system on top of BSD for OSX. I think in order for Linux to grow into the wider desktop market a new graphics UI not based on X is needed, I have always felt this way.
