U biti Linux,kada ga je Linus tamo 1990 izrađivao,on ga je htio napraviti za svoj vlastiti x86 bazirani desktop.Činjenica da je Linux uspješniji na serverima nego na desktopu je čisti skup okolnosti ili slučajnost.A ako pročitate zadnju rečenicu u citatu copy pasteanom dolje,da se zaključiti da Linuxov problem nije tehničke prirode nego problem okoline.
Linux kernel developer Greg Kroah-Hartman moderated the discussion and commented that Linux already runs everywhere. He asked Torvalds where he thinks Linux should go next. "I still want the desktop," Torvalds said as the audience erupted into boisterous applause. The challenge on the desktop is not a kernel problem, Torvalds said. "It's a whole infrastructure problem. I think we'll get there one day."
