I think that the advantage of the X11 desktop is that you can, or had
been able to, use anyone you want and switch around when you needed to.
What has happened with the new Gnome and KDE is that they are following
the locked down model of computer abuse, and they no longer function
with each other or anything else. It has gotten to be an enormous
problem. That being said, there was a crest of linux desktop usage
with umbuntu but it not only might be fading, but it might be inherently
counter productive to broad gnu/linux adoption because it is more locked
down then any of the traditional systems.

Now here is the weird thing. There might be more people, actually there
is definitely more people, using linux as a primary interface on their
digital systems than ever before. And it is the most locked down peice
of crap that you could ever imagine in the form of android. By default,
you can't do a damn thing with that OS without prior authorization. And
then there is chrome. These things just push 15 years of advanced
desktop programming aside and shove apps at a buck a piece at you. It
is like living with Whimpy, from Popeye.

regardless. There are some wonderful free software programs out there
that are ready to use, but try to figure them out without docs? Scribus
is definitely one and I don't really give a shit how it compares to
Illustrator. I wouldn't use illustrator if you paid me to learn it and
it came with dancing girls (which is a twisted way it actually does). I
want to learn Scribus.
