If this was true then you would show how it promotes productivity,
efficiency, and error-reduction. Instead you claim, above, that such a
thing, which I note is "cool", is not something you are interested or find
valuable.

And that is, really, where desktop Linux fails - it is made by and for
people who do not care much about productivity, efficiency, and
error-reduction. Until and unless that changes it will never gain much of a
user base.

Below you go off on how you feel bad about yourself and thus have the need
to lash out. Not interested.
