Yes, but there is a moral duty that you have, as a person with knowledge, to
make people aware of the presence of an option, and that there _is_ a
decision to make.  Microsoft have been very succesful in making people think
they are the only player in the operating system market.  How many people do
you know who believe that almost everyone uses Microsoft servers?  How many
of those people would be suprised to learn that this was far from the case?
Dominic's wife was certainly suprised by this the other day!
