InfoWeek has an interesting article about the open-source future - What Linux Will Look Like In 2012:
Our open source expert foresees the future of Linux: By 2012 the OS will have matured into three basic usage models. Web-based apps rule, virtualization is a breeze, and command-line hacking for basic system configuration is a thing of the past.
I don't know about others but I'm using Linux desktop since 1999 and it won't change in 2012. May be it will be look like ;)

LOL!
hm … im using it since ‘96 …
until 2002 i was using only the terminal (no X)
my opinion is that in 2012 linux will be a better desktop than all others … but still we’ll use the power shell !
in my world nothing can be done without shell …
im using kde and on desktop No.1 there is konsole opened and nothing more …
usefull shortcut: alt-f2
and my suggestion for terminal addicted… usefull app: yakuake
they will understand …
beauty is taking valuable processor cycles …
bash will win …
low energy green friendly interfaces …
me@linux:~$
the world is becoming a free place finally and linux/open source will play one of the main roles…
that’s how I see things with linux…
great ideas live forever!
