"But I really do see a need for linux to become considerably more robust, so we can get sufficient momentum to exploit the enormous size of the Android ecosystem, and perhaps raise the percentage of desktops to....5%?"
I do think app sandboxen that could keep their sand thoroughly contained and prevent it from smelling or poking any part of the underlying HW/SW would be good. I'm not really comfortable with the level of permeability that containers seem to have.
I don't think the Android or Steam ecosystems will be truly available on a Linux desktop with free graphics drivers that work well until someone invents a way to make "secure" UEFI the only boot environment for desktops, at which point, we will all be ants in Microsoft's ant farm anyway, and I will probably become a lawyer because it will be the only remaining way to make any money in North America.

well there is a chrome plugin that runs android apps? So if you create a VM and run android in it....might be useful? Just throwing a few things out there, as computers are getting faster, somethings just become possible. Virtualisation for example, is almost turnkey, but maybe a bit complicated?
