Back in 1998, GNU/Linux did not even have a decent web browser. Today, it has better browsers than IE, excellent media players, a free and quite nice office suite, two easy-to-use and full featured desktop environments, and so on...

Linux desktop is light-years ahead of what it was back then, and every day you can see signs that it is already a quite mature alternative and it is being considered seriously by many. You have to be blind not to see a change is happening right now.
