@mbaudier Well, even after reaching that "tipping point," I still don't see Linux taking off as it should on the desktop.
I think it's the legacy problem: People can't move to a new OS easily because it doesn't have first-class support for their applications.
WINE or a VM isn't first-class support: It's second-class support, and a barrier to migrating to a new OS.
I also think some of the "it's broken" claims about Windows are exaggerated. Yes, Windows has had its problems in the past, but the most recent versions of Windows have far less issues than before, and help when something happens is super easy to find.
