Does anyone actually do that?  I can see the above as an additional
argument for someone who's about to switch to Linux, but surely it's
not the main reason.

I don't try to convince windows users to switch to linux - unless they are prepared to get support - but when they ask me why I use linux, one of the reasons I give is that I have never been infected by a virus, and that I don't use an antivirus.


Don't forget to mention that many commercial firewalls run Linux or Unix (including BSD), because they are secure. Many people, including me, build a reliable firewall with Linux on an old PC.
