Has Linux desktop caught up technically to Windows yet? The last time I used it there were still problems like double clicking a jpg from the Firefox downloads list opening an "open with" dialog pointed to /usr/bin or something. And it seems like where Windows will put things in places that might not technically be a perfect categorization but are convenient and make some sense, like monitor/video/screensaver properties from right clicking the desktop, this seemed to happen a lot less in Linux DEs. Aside from them seeming somewhat less responsive in general and lacking equivalent GUI system utilities to things like "Computer Management" or the device manager.
