  Cool. I think it's good that it's being publicized. Jesper is expressing
what a lot of developers are going through right now: lot's of people
migrating to Linux, but expecting open-source software to be delivered as
fast and feature-filled as MS products. Like the Slashdot intro says: "This
is a must read for anyone who uses any open source software.".

  The good news: with more Linux users comes more developers and more of a
market for companies to release Linux-friendly products (and games *ahem*).
The bad news: that's not happening any time soon. It's best we be patient.
