Interview with Robert Love

I recently had a chat with all around nice guy Robert Love(gotta love that last name - I want it) about the upcoming Linux 2.6 and the state of the Linux desktop.

For your enjoyment

Sadly no, but going to Florida to talk to him would be to expensive, plus my body doesn't really handle heat all that well... one of the reasons I like the weather up north better.

The heat in Florida should not be a problem. Right now it's only 63 degrees (~ 17 Celsius), but even in the summertime practically every home, business, vehicle is air conditioned, so it's no big deal to handle it. The price of the plane ticket is another issue ...
