I don't think commercialization is the answer to anything. It's just one more facet of Linux, and not the deciding one by any means.

Before the commercial ventures, Linux tended to be rather hard to set up, because most of the developers were motivated mainly by their own interests.

Eventually the revolutionaries become the established culture, and then what will they do

I actually don't believe that everybody should necessarily try to learn to code. I think it's reasonably specialized, and nobody really expects most people to have to do it. It's not like knowing how to read and write and do basic math.

I started Linux because I wanted to see it on the desktop... I do hope that the desktop people would try to work together ... and work more on the technology than trying to make the login screen look really nice.

I don't think I'm unusual in preferring my laptop to be thin and light.

All operating systems sucks, but Linux just sucks less
