I do think the number of Linux users will rise, once people tire of what Windows updates do to computers.

And as Linux becomes easier to install and use. Ubuntu is getting there; it has the first package manager that I actually like.

PcLinuxOS and Mepis use the same manager and both are easier than Ubuntu IMHO.

Ubuntu's Dapper is the best distro I've seen. I am very happy with the results on my laptop and desktop PCs. I only have one more PC to convert, I'm thinking about using the Kubuntu variant for that one.
