...."With the growing amount of talk on the usability of Linux for beginners, there have been"...
Maybe if we change this sentence to:
With the growing amount of talk on the usability of Linux for people whome don't care about computers, there have been...
we can do it right. People don't want to LEARN to use linux... if you trick them into a not-so steep learning curve they jump out.
We need to think about the following... why would I choose linux if I don't care about computers? or better why would I choose a volvo instead of a mercedes? what is the advantage for people to choose linux?... trust me "open source" means nothing to them.
if there is a "but" in your answer it is wrong.

I'm buzy in media & other stuff. I can tell you one thing > 99% of the audio engineers, musicians don't want the abillity to program something if it doesn't have the necesarry function. they just want it to work easily, look good and is bundled in one screen&program like for instance sequoia and others.
Still imho (i like usability) they can still be a lot easier to use and that my friends can also be the power of the flexibility of linux. Do like japan did with electronica. Mimic en become eventually waaaay better than the original!
