Linux is a stinking turd...
There is been a bug in the Linux kernel that makes computers reboot every 47.9 days. This bug has been around for nearly 15 years!
I don't think that Linux can claim to be ready for the desktop (nor the server for that matter) until its development process is streamlined. As it is, the development priorities are set at the whims of one person.
Linux violates 235 Microsoft patents.
A distro for tweakers that ships Gnome by default? Gasp!
Yum does have some pros over apt but they sure aren't speed and efficiency.
Good god, like what? I haven't found *anything* yum does better than apt.
