Something that i hope to see happening soon is that MS is forced to lower Windows retail prices to reasonable levels, because of the increased competition of Linux or Mac OS's.

Still, there are some things holding back Linux's market penetration.. For example, corporate environment IT moves forward at a *very* slow pace. Also, games (the killer app for many desktop users) basically require Windows at the moment. Either game developers will need to start offering OpenGL codepaths, or running multiple OS's simultaneously has to become common. I can see that last thing happening with upcoming quad-core processors (like AMD's 'Barcelona', which offers extensive hardware virtualisation posibilities).
