I think Walmart tried the downmarket linux thing about ... wow, ten years ago maybe? I see an article on Everex Green GPC, I thought there was another one too.

I think Walmart tried the downmarket linux thing about ... wow, ten years ago maybe? I see an article on Everex Green GPC, I thought there was another one too. But.. the linux desktop is way better today compared to then, despite my bitching about it. Maybe a kickass turnkey cloud-based desktop solution would be a big uptake. AWS has won servers, but why shouldn't they win desktops too? What company doesn't want to move to remote desktops for everyone? That would probably take some investment in stabilizing the remote/RDP video drivers, a lot like what has always plagued linux desktop: video support and drivers.
