Default Microsoft Linux???

I beg to differ.

Linux provides a sound basis for, say research universities and colleges
where no such commercial software exists for the research and projects
they have embarked upon.

Linux then becomes a universal tool of researchers with an additional
bonus that an open license permits them to tweak code as needed if needed.

Ummm .. what I forgot to say is that I don't think Linux hopes to be a
commercial desktop OS or a widely available desktop OS (yet?)
