UNIX is a usually a poor choice for the desktop, and Expanded Reality ;-) UNIX is a poor choice for the intellectually lazy, or incompetent; Usually than 50% of PC users are intellectually lazy, or incompetent; So UNIX is a poor choice for these people's desktop. Microsoft get paid heavily to support their choice market sector: the mostly intellectually lazy, ignorant, or hopelessly incompetent. Many MS users would be an unpaid liability for BSD. Dumb fumble & click lazy losers are best left to their MS rip off prices, bootlegs, viruses & crashes. Those prepared to exercise their brain learning are worth recruiting to BSD though, if they realise that though BSD requires no purchase price, it does require time to read docs & think. 6500 ported FreeBSD packages inc. many window managers gives a wide choice of desktops, but never would I try to recruit all classes of MS-users to BSD.
