Oh, and by the way: Linux has mostly got where it is just by word of mouth, so it is also a counterexample. Products like EEE confirm that people want it (or at least want what it provides) even on the desktop. Only problem is, people want Windows even more: they think Linux will be "too advanced" for them. Such rubbish keeps large portions of the general public away, which is a pity.
