I have never purchased a copy of Windows either. I only get it when

something like $50 per computer that the computer companies pay
Microsoft for Windows. So we both do pay for it with new computer.
And lets not forget the time bombed versions of Office that's included
with many new computers. People start using it, and then, after a
while, find they can't work with their own documents unless they pay
for Office.
The first thing I do when I get a computer is to install Ubuntu as a
dual boot system. The next thing I do in Windows is to delete the trial
version of MS Office.
