Granted, that number is probably a large one, but as evidenced by eWEEK Labs’ tests of Ubuntu Linux 7. 04, the state of the Linux desktop–not to mention that of other Windows alternatives–is too strong to hold off heterogeneity forever. 04, which Dell has chosen to headline its desktop Linux foray, has made impressive strides toward claiming a spot on mainstream desktop and server machines, both by piling up advances made across the Linux and open source community, and by building in advances of its own.

Desktop Linux Face-Off: Ubuntu 8.04 vs. Fedora 9
PC World – Jun 2, 2008
And in the past three years, a few distributions have made stupendous leaps in performance and usability, winning the affection of millions of mainstream desktop users. The recent releases of Ubuntu 8. 04 and Fedora 9–two top Linux distributions–mark another step forward in the evolution of the Linux desktop.
