Mass acceptance on the desktop will never happen for Linux and the Linux community itself is mostly the problem. For the same reason why open source software, for the most part, is just so god awful (with a few fantastic examples). It is software written by developers, for developers with little consideration for users. It tends to be clunky and counterintuitive.

Ugh. I am here to USE my computer and USE a program, not endlessly tinker with it. I grew up with DOS and the command line and pre-GUI interfaces - I will never go back to that garbage again.
