The handwriting on the wall is simple. If this takes off, consumer options will 
be narrowed. PCs compatible with Linux will cost more, because sales volumes of 
such models will be lower. And windows machines will cost more too, because of 
slightly lower volumes and increased license fees.

Anti-trust law no longer exists, alas, so we consumers have to accept this. 
Whining about it does no good, but neither does anything else. Boycotts don't 
do much good either.
