i agree with virtually everything you said except this. i don't agree with 
this point at all.

as for the rest of the valid issues you very rightly point out, 12 months from 
now things will look very different. we're about to konquer, er, conquer the 
groupware problems, CRM is simply a matter of time (we're very close to the 
point where CRM plugins for something like Kontact would be a matter of <1000 
person hours of devel time, which is ~.5 years for one person) and with the 
concerted push of IBM/Novell/OSDL/RedHat/etc the more intractible problems 
(Reuters) will also fall.

getting the hospitals, bank tellers, schools, etc on desktop Linux sooner 
rather than later will also help the push ...
