As a system administrator, I have used Windows on the desktop since 2.0 and used to run Windows XP at home for my family. I use Linux and Windows servers at work and prefer (Red Hat) Linux for its security, stability and usefulness in a company with a diminishing IT budget. More than a year ago I started experimenting with Linux as a desktop solution and after installing and using more than 7 different distros along with many various versions of those distros, I found a distro that is doing everything its suppose to do, right out of the box. I'm talking about the pleasantly suprising Lindows 4.0.

1. Buy LindowsOS for $50, or better yet, buy a LindowsOS computer and you get LindowsOS for free. Unlike XP, we actually do mean free, because the builder didn't have to pay $100 to install it so they don't pass the cost on to you. (See http://lindows.com/builder for details.)
The Bronze Builder Program ... <snip> ... At a flat $100 per year licensing fee ... <snip>
The Silver Builder Program ... <snip> ... At a flat $500 monthly licensing fee ... <snip>
The builder DOES have to pay AT LEAST $100 to install it, and I'm SURE they pass that on.
