I contend that Linux's big market share opportunity will come not from conventional PCs no longer being sold with Windows, but from the erosion of the conventional PC markets. Nobody wants a big box of wires in their office, and I contend that even laptops are too big. I believe that the future involves smartphone class devices and accessories to make them more useful for present-day laptop type duties. Lots of professionals are already issued BlackBerries and their ilk, and current/near future phones are shipping with 1G of system RAM, and 16-32G of flash. Give me better productivity software and remote desktop over bluetooth, and I'd kiss my ThinkPad goodbye.
