We already have “UNIX on the desktop” that’s widely used—it’s called MacOS X, which uses a UNIX variant with the Mach kernel. Indeed, Apple’s iOS is also based on UNIX with a Mach kernel.

I've used Ubuntu to recover Windows passwords for others. It works. Like I stated previously it works well enough for FR to use it. It is a little more important than Jobs quitting(again) imo.
