I mean, he complains about the price of Windows (and rightly so) but still continues using it. He assumes that nobody in the entire world except IBM can create a "real" desktop Linux. (Never mind Xandros, Lindows, Libranet, et al.)[*]

I work in an all MS shop and am happily using Xandros 2.0 Deluxe as my office PC desktop, running IE 6 (for our trouble ticket system) and Examview (the Windows-only test bank software).

What can IBM add to Linux (apart from built-in connectivity to management software like Tivoli, as another poster suggested) that would make their desktop OS ruler of the PC universe?

For crying out loud, why do people still listen to this guy????
