Finding an entry-level home PC that doesn't have a Windows XP sticker on it requires consumers to search through a maze of Web sites. Or if they try calling a major PC maker, the agent is likely to have a hard time steering them toward a Linux-based or bare-bones system.

Fine, then you deal with your mom's malware problem. You're right, most people don't care about their OS, but they should. Windows is a pile of shit, and anyone who thinks otherwise IS ignorant and stupid. It's got security holes that you can fly the space shuttle through. It's fatally flawed, which is why I spend my days at work trying to remove all that awful malware from the Windows computers I support. When I say ignorant, I mean it in the strictest sense of the word. Either people don't know about an alternative, or they just don't care. And that is ignorant.
