My experience (from putting GNOME/KDE boxes in front of people) is that most DON'T care - they care about what they can do. However, try and buy a box w/o windows at Circuit City/Best Buy/etc. They buy Windows because that's what's sold. They use Windows because that's what they're used to. They're used to it because that's what they bought. They bought it because that's what's sold. Rinse, lather, repeat.
