Poal and phuks are powered by Linux. Linux is the way of the future.
Yes it is. More people need to migrate off of Windows. Linux installs are getting easier every day.
Hey if my ass can figure it out most people can. /s I am actually an IT guy for a living but I still say its not that hard to make a linux installer and boot from it!
I've been encouraging people to at least try out a live CD. I am an IT guy too and have tried to switch primary OS to Linux many times over there year, but always, something didn't quite work right. But now, everything 100% works. And so much faster. And more secure. And free. And more/better updates.
I still think it is too hard for average joe user though. To get my system 100% had to tweak a lot of stuff. Like Google Earth did not work. Had to find old version and install manually which is way beyond most users ability.
If Linux can install without needing the shell at all, I think we can see a bigger migration. But the shell is just too much for many.
Slackware current and i3 here. If you haven't tried i3 (i3wm.org) you really should. Takes about a day to get gud, just print out the cheat sheet to get going.
All keyboard driven command tiling / floating /tabbed WM.
