point of uslessness when they released 8.0

linux is not bsd or windows. linux in my opinion is the up
and coming (desktop) and i am talking here not anything else.
one big distro would give linux a standard. maybe a stand
could be implemented for all the distros before the other
ones lose so much market share they dont make it. what
if suse were to implement mandrakes updater and install
feature and red hat too. i realize mandrake started out
to be like red hat but now they are even better for MOST
OF US.
thanks
