Don't you think? For me, making the war against Bill OSes means using Free Software OSes (Debian, Gentoo, FreeBSD.......)instead Bill's one. Everybody is free to use the OS he like, so I choose FreeBSD or Linux simply because for me they are better. I also try to evangelize my friends here in my city to use free software, but at the moment, it has been a difficult task.
