Linux Expo

I delivered a talk at London's Linux Expo today. Great audience, laughed in all the right places, even had e-mail asking for the slides. The place was packed with people, not quite so packed with exhibitors. The new Sun Java Desktop System is being received very well indeed - deservedly, in my opinion. I have a beta installed here at home and I've been really impressed with what it delivers, so I was quite surprised to hear the IBM speaker before me claim Linux isn't ready for the desktop. Wrong. Its time has come.
