I find it pretty easy to use on the desktop, but would agree that Windows is easier as of now. But if major software developers like Adobe are involved, there is a good chance that situation will change. I see no reason why the desktop versions could not be improved.
The alternative is what - buy a Mac or just take whatever Microsoft decides to shove down your throat? Now that Microsoft is attacking Adobe's Flash with their Silverlight product, maybe Adobe is starting to question how much of a benefit it might be to encourage Linux and Apple development. They might remember what happened to Netscape.
