We will not add up the cost for Apple and sotware associated with it. It gets real costly.

Sit down for a moment and add up your OEM copies of Windows and its programs.

While you're at it! Add up the cost for the retail versions for consumers.

Tell me now?

You pay more for Microsoft and programs in 1 year versus the lowsy $160 dollars that you give to SUSE for their roundup of Open Source programs and its programmers.

Let's be fair about this and say, That you bought a brand new DULL desktop with XP Pro installed, all for you.
You get tons of trial versions of software and you find that you like most of them. You turn around and pay for them.
Just buying two copies of software "can" easily add above the $160.00 dollar mark.

Let's not get into M.S. Office and such!

A lot of people do not consider this at all.

All Software adds up!
