Okay, I confess that I chose this headline to draw you into this blog entry. A more accurate headline would be"Operating systems need to disappear". But I don't want my meaning to be misconstrued. The term"operating systems" would have to include proprietary operating systems. If I say"proprietary operating systems need to disappear", I mean they should be wiped off the face of the earth. When I say Linux should disappear, I mean that end users shouldn't need to know it's there. Big difference. Add to that the fact that I would love to see Linux asthe operating system for all computing devices, and there's not much left to use as a headline except"Linux needs to disappear".
