You don't think that's true?
For the Average luser he's right. We all know people who will use Win$ux no matter what. They do not want to configure anything Win$ux came on the computer they got at Circuit City and they never heard of Linux (poor benighted souls)
And if their computers came with Linux, they'd use that, even if someone offered them a free copy of Windows XP Super-Mega Professional.
