And still no one wants to use GNU/Linux. I guess, as long as XP is available, Linux will be ignored ;) If gaming is the issue, go get a desktop :p Interesting.

The linux desktop oses are a breeze to use for non-techies who just surfs, chats and types. Yet it is flexible enough to be able to install xp for the advance users. The limitations on it are manageable considering its target market and how it is supposed to be used.
