Not worth the click; it's a weak summary of Christian Schaller original article "Why hasn’t The Year of the Linux Desktop happened yet?" that was previously discussed on HN at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15987060.

Every OS is just one of many. There is NO 'one true way'.
So tell me, when is the "Year of the Mercedes Highway" going to happen? The fact that it hasn't happened yet must mean that Mercedes is a failure as an auto company, OR DOES IT?
Actually there are many, many Mercedes drivers happily using the highway, just as there are many, many Linux users happily working on their desktops.
