Great article Eric. But what drives people to Linux? I think the biggest selling point of Linux is MS. I watched a neighbor load Windows XP and I was appalled at this spyware thats called an OS. Linux offers security, privacy, and stability. All you have to do is figure it out. Thats why people suffer the learning curve. Your points are true, but there are things that are worse. Like the contempt MS has for its customers. I noticed at Best Buy that HP has taken the backspace and pipe key out of the keyboard and made the backspace twice as wide. Hell no, I'll never go back. Connect to a MS server to get your mouse to work indeed.
