No, I think the blame lies on Xorg, I'm told that the changes were major, and 
like any virtual monopoly the changes were made with the expectation that if you 
wanted to use X you would adapt or die.

In retrospect that probably hurt Linux, people found they couldn't upgrade to 
get security fixes in Linux at the same time MSFT released Win7, which honestly 
must be better because I don't hear people telling me it crashes all the time.
