Linux desktops: Graphics boost, virtualization add to stature
,----[ Quote ]
| The most significant developments on the Linux desktop in the last
| four months have to be the maturing of accelerated graphics capabilities
| and virtualization. Major commercial and open distributions have released
| these capabilities, and the maturity of these technologies is growing
| daily.
|
| Desktop environments that use accelerated graphics are incredibly
| responsive and 'sexy.' Users say it is difficult to measure the
| incremental usefulness of desktop environments that leverage
| accelerated graphics, but they like it. Users enjoy seamless video and
| whizzy things like rotating desktop polygons.
