The voice of reason! I, myself, use proprietary programs that are free, but 
not Free like Acrobat Reader. xPDF doesn't always work. I also use Win4Lin to 
run the odd Windows application and downloaded Microsoft fonts (gasp!) inside 
of Linux. I suspect I'm not the only one that is gung-ho for Linux *and* uses 
proprietary applications. The choice should be up to the user. I use Linux 
because it is better, not because it is cheaper, and not because I can modify 
the source code, since I know barely enough C to write a Hello World program 
:P
