Why don't you spend your time and energy addressing whatever market
failures have stopped Linux taking a larger share of the desktop
market - especially the consumer desktop market - despite manifest
advantages such as price? As it is this is yet another thread which
seems to me to support the (in)famous comment:

"The biggest killer of putting penguin software on the desktop was the
Linux community. If you think the Apple fanboys are completely barking,
they are role models of sanity to the loudmouthed Open Sauce religious
loonies who are out there."

And AIUI you couldn't just install any old Linux distro and use Netflix
until last autumn. If so, how was that a system fit for the consumer
market?
