One of the things that keeps me from using Linux as my primary desktop 
OS is the *lack* of choice. To me choice is not just about a count of 
how many settings or DEs I can swap in and out, but about if there are 
efficient ways to get tasks done.

A computer is a tool designed to get tasks done... what matters to me is 
how well it does that. And, of course, choice in computer will depend on 
what tasks you want to get done, and what hardware you have, etc.
