Hi Con,

What's your opinion of individuals who try Linux, specify their next
computer purchase to be a Windows PC anyway, and then hunt the best
price for one?

And IT Departments of both corporations/government organizations, many
of whom were raised on Unix, who specify their next purchase to be
Windows computers, and then hunt the best prices for them?

Cheers,
Clarky
