A lot of people seem to jump onto the Linux bandwagon, because software is free. But, a lot of open source software that started life on Linux are ported to Windows. So, I guess for the average user, it seems there is little reason to use Linux as an alternative OS.

People also talk about stability. Yeah, I think Linux is stable, especially if I am to compare Linux with Windows 95. But, I think Windows has evolved into a stable OS, too.
The new computer would be left alone with Windows Vista or Windows XP... and for primary use. This computer I'm using now would be converted to Linux for exploratory purposes.
