In some ways, the Year of the Linux Desktop has come many times over. We've got phablets, tablets and other Android devices. Alot of the things people would use a desktop computer for are now handled by the aforementioned devices (browsing the web, checking email, personal finance, etc). I just paid $170 for my new Android phone (unlocked). It has 8GB of ram, 128GB of solid state storage, Wifi, a 5G radio, Bluetooth, a 50 megapixel camera and a nice large screen. It's really incredible the computing power you can get on a phone so inexpensively. For me this device would handle all of the personal computing needs if there was a good way to dock it into a large display with a keyboard and have more of "Desktop" UI mode. Desktops/laptops for personal computing are dead.
