My question is why? What are the specific reasons that Linux is undesirable? There may be existing solutions to these issues. These issues expressed may be motivation by the Linux developing community to improve it. I use 13.10, and I did not like the Unity interface when I first saw it, plus I wanted less fluff, so I went to xUbuntu with the xfce desktop. This feedback is how we make the OS better. We are not locked into one file system, user interface, etc. John </body> </html>
