If any Linux distribution or software company makes such software that I mentioned before, just as industry standard “dictate”, of course Linux will have a boost. I know many users who are crazy to leave MS if someone does this in Linux.

Well, the dotcom bubble 3 Hall of Fame may not yet being activated, but here I have some ideas about applications, which of course are not new, nor original, that you might want to remember:
- Pro Video Editing with lots of FXs, features & plugins.
- Pro Sound Editing with ” ” “, ” “. Sort of ProTools standard.
- Pro modelling & 3D rendering seamlessly, with lots of “”"”"”"”.
- Writing / Storyteller / Film writing programs and templates for inspirate new stories and characters.

Some ideas on features for openSuse:
- Thousands, but mainly: a way to detect hardware free from propietary drivers. Just by knowing its chipset implementation, and on the fly, or a sort of simulator for those complicated ones. Or maybe using just doing the “analogue social thing”: to court hardware companies for not allowing the use of its cards to all OS, including Linux, but of course, respecting their propietary code. Or maybe just a way to implement a higher driver kernel that can run on top (if wanted, and easily configured from KDE or Gnome, or with its own GUI, that with a click it can be activated or desactivated), that can make use of window drivers. This way, there’s no problems with copyrights.
- More stupid games just as solitaires and such, easy to play, easy to leave.

On global design strategies (if wanted common use for most typical PC users):
- Changing program and pack names onto something different than acronyms. Example: Konqueror is one of the few that have a meaning, sense or simply sounds nice. A good thing for a sort of win-explorer. On the opposite side you have thousands of thousands of impossible names for non technicians. That’s for a point of view from a common user, which is not a tech-nerd and comes from the Win platform, or even Mac.
- Probably the first global design pompous concept law its to simply research on the type of people you want to use your product and the possibilities of use and service for them. But truly global design it’s just about having an idea, a mission, the type of public you want to have for your product, and then the honesty enough to put yourself in their skin to understand their needs, worries and possibilities (and of course, also their cash). A good example of selling global design is MS, no doubt. The problem is that their OS is not very good, because it’s not very important.
Which it’s important is to sell it and to make the OS a lifestyle, and even a job because they created an education system where people of any background (not just university students, but everybody) can work (and earn money) with them in a moderate good job climate, selling and giving light support to very common users at a ..let’s say “a reasonable price”. This workers are the real workforce/support of its OS, because they are telling (selling) users to use it and obliged them to do so if they want any support of any kind. An example of lack of this mid or low support were the one thing that great OS of the past just as OS/2 or BeOS didn’t worked. It’s just about the art of a tech-nerd to disconnect this tech-head and play the analog for a while.

Just my 2 cents. (remember about me if you are lucky!) Now I’m only on education! And learning! Good luck!

Merry Christmas :-)
