> Recently (just as most of the world has apparently moved on from desktop computing, haha) Linux is pretty much fine for the traditional desktop computing. It's exactly because the world has moved away from desktop computing that Linux on the desktop has become viable: collaboration tools are increasingly web-based (or is at least web-enabled for the 80%-usecase), and those tools are exactly what tends to anchor an organisation on a single platform. These days, even Outlook has a perfectly usable web-interface that works fine in Chrome and Firefox.
