If, and I say “If”, anybody can come up with an easy to install (and one that will recognize all current hardware and software) Linux (Unix) package, Microsoft is toast.

Doc I hate to break it to you but many distros are as easy to set up and use as Windows what Linux need(ed) was an OEM to back them (most people dont install windows). Maybe Dell will give them the in they needed.

But, like another poster said, they need the backing of a large OEM.
