One of the main things I think that it needs is a central management
system, a la GPO's - although I hear RedHat has some sort of a system,
I dont know how far it goes or how its managed. Other than that, I
dont really see it as lacking anything per se, just applications!
On the server side of things though, I believe Linux is already there
and viable, but you do need to know your stuff :)
