Ever since Microsoft started publicly outing Linux with their "Get the Facts" campaign, I have seen numerous articles and studies about the TCO (total cost of ownership) of both products in a head to head manner. However, I have yet to see one article discuss the TCO for home users and small businesses. I have thought long and crunched many numbers to devise a conclusion to this years old debate and I think the results are obvious... Windows is way more expensive than Linux.

Your 44 year old mom must be a wonderful woman, I have worked as a tech-support for many years and it's insane how people lack of computer knowledge, even small things that should be know. I can tell that 95/100 people that call in don't know anything besides surfing and writing, everything else is too hard to do. And people do not sit down to read manuals either, they are too lazy, think how it's like when they install something and maybe an icon do not appear, or some packages are missing or not installed so the application do not function properly? Write more objectively oriented, some people only see the downfalls and some just see the good, see in between.
