Mr Muth of Microsoft makes several questionable comments/statements.
However, I think he makes one that is in fact true. He said...
"First, a broad base of support for applications -- especially
off-the-shelf, shrink-wrapped applications -- is necessary for a modern
operating system, he said. "
Unless a Linux distribution can offer a full blown office suite with its
distribution, I don't think Linux will ever make it to the government
(federal, state or local) desktop let alone a small business or the home
environment.
