It's about I spent my money, and I'm satisfied with my investment. If the day comes when I need what Linux has, I'll get it and use it. Now, could I make that decision by dismissing Linux out-of-hand?

As for being free: don't you value your labor? Have you nothing better to do than install a new OS on your computer(s)? I do, so the time I'd spend playing with Linux is worth more than nothing.

Listen, we'll never persuade each other to change, so I'm outa here, okay?

Peace
