I belive that ZFS definitely belongs on a desktop, mostly for its
built-in reliability, free snapshots, built-in compression and
cryptography (soon) and easy to use.

ps. few days ago I encountered my first checksum error on my
    desktop system on a submirror (two sata drives in a zfs mirror). Thanks to 
zfs it
    won't be a problem and it's already repaired.
