Why would I give a damn if I already BOUGHT this computer. The final price was $400. That's for the computer AND monitor. The montior was about $150, so the computer was only $250.

I think you missed the point entirely. Try rereading and maybe you will eventually understand, not sure if I will get that lucky though.

So I should replace what my whole family likes and knows how to use for something that no one I know has ever heard of or used? Ok.
You seems to have this idea that Linux is total different from Windows any nothing works the same, this is wrong. You realize that much of it is the same but with more stability and speed? Heck even many common programs that you use run on Linux(such as Firefox and Chrome.).

The final price was $300. Nothing was added but the mandatory $0.08 per dollar set in place by the government.
...no.
Let me explain, when you buy a computer you have to PAY for the Windows license. I would much rather spend that 100+$ on a hardware upgrade than on a piece of junk OS that they will try to charge me another 100$ for in a years time when they decide to upgrade.

Yeah. I meant any program that I want to use. In all my years using a Windows computer, I have never come across a program I wanted to run but couldn't because I was on a Windows.
I can think of a few.
1) A package manager.
2) EXT4 file systems.(EXT4 file systems do not fragment, meaning no defragmenting in Linux.)
3) Valgrind debugger.
Those are just a few I came up with right away, there are plenty more believe me.

Well, prepare for people to bitch about it when you release a program that doesn't work on Windows. The computer that MOST PEOPLE have.
Damn sucks for them. Maybe I will make a payed windows version then like most other windows software.
