I'm a Linux user and advocate, and desktop Linux will not take off big until business standardizes an interface. In short, when businesses decides on a common GUI to use, that's when you'll start seeing it in the business desktop. I'd like that to be KDE (and so would Linus Torvalds), but the purists keep pushing GNOME.

When businesses buy software, they want to train their people on it, and that becomes impossible with different graphical interfaces.

It's more than just the interface that's fragmented, even the disk format is a warground. These folks just can't get along, ever heard of "Ice Weasel"?
