I certainly
won't be moving from the X Server over to Canonicals solution anytime
soon.

And I keep thinking of Windows 8 :)
Smartphones, tablets, and desktops are kinda different. I don't want a UI
designed for smartphones & tablets, on my desktop. I do _serious work_ on
my desktop. Perhaps the underlying architecture needs improving, but I'm afraid
of what might happen when developers start using _tablets_. (Ubuntu's support
for floppy disks broke because developers were using _laptops_ for
development.)
And really, a touchscreen interface? I used to write UI s/w for touchscreens 13
years ago. They were industrially hardened PCs, used on manufacturing machines
as operator interfaces. I'd like someone to explain to me how to do
development, or any other serious work, on a touchscreen.
The whole thing reeks of consumerism.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I remember a discussion at a linux conference many years ago, suggesting that an
X replacement was a good idea. Very few people need the client server nature of
the beast and it could be made much faster and simpler by putting it all
together. But then you have to deal with the different video cards and displays
and the complexity is back.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
