Not an issue with Linux though, you just have incompetent tech maintenance.

  That is a major on-the-desktop constituency, though: company standard builds. If companies struggle to do it, that reflects badly on the system as a solution. There is a difference between something being technically feasible, vs a realised outcome. I have had a shot at building a standard desktop on top of ubuntu. My situation was easier than most in that we only had two desktops to support (a thinkpad and a dell laptop). still, making driver setup work seamlessly is hard. Imagine a company with twenty variations and an audit directive to not give root to users. WSL has huge potential to this market. You get a linux ui and kernel api, and it complements your existing standard build strategy.

    Well yes, it probably isn't such a piece of cake. I was too harsh.

  Windows seems to run fine even with incompetent maintenance.
