What happend to the Linux desktop?

So looks like from this piece that Linux is going to make some serious inroads into mobile handsets - but it's still slow going for the open source OS when it comes to the desktop.

But then I guess people haven't been conditioned to one proprietary OS on their phone in the same way as the desktop - user might be more open minded about the OS on their phone and use the best technology rather than simply following the herd.

But then again most people probably buy a handset based on what it looks like rather than the underlying OS...
