     I think we are attacking the wrong goal.  What people want is
that their OS "Just Works".

What Fedora really needs to do is find a legal way to make all of
these things "Just Work". As long as the OS just works, newbies will
love it.

Most people don't care if their driver came from Nvidia or not,
as long as it just works and gives equal performance.

Agree with you.
The other day I was chatting with a friend & I asked him the reason why not give Open Source a try?
Then he started telling that, it needs a lot of tweaking & he doesn't wants that headache.
He wants everything to work out of box. He also said it doesn't matter which OS I use but it should be able to complete his work as soon as possible.
So the bottom line is People don't care much, they just want it fast like as in Fast-Food.
