"This is crap. Ever heard of "interest"? "Cost of money"? Think about it. "
You are joking arn't you? You mean if you took the money you would have spent on switching to Linux and invested it to earn interest you would earn at least as much as you will be paying out in continuous license fees to M$? If this crazy idea added up do you not think M$ would change to become an investment company rather than a software company? M$ obviously take more money in licensing than could be made from investing the capital outley.
