One thing that is frustrating, at least for me, is that when I buy a new PC I have to pay more for a PC without an operating system than for a PC with Windows included. I am not sure that's the fact all over the world, but it is at least here in my "odd" country. So it feels like if I want a new PC with Linux, at least I either have to pay for: 1. Windows + PC or 2.

That's BS. http://www.linux.org/vendor/system/desktop.html - http://www.linux.org/vendor/system/laptop.html - lists of places you can buy computers with Linux already installed on them. No need to buy Windows. Or, you could order this: http://www.dell.com/content/topics/segtopic.aspx/e510_nseries?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhsfrom Dell. Or this from Walmart: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=3762912 .Or go to a local hardware shop and ask for a barebones system and a hard drive. Or, hell, buy a Mac. -- - Chad Smith http://www.chadwsmith.com/
