It's all in perception. Unfortunately, far too many people still have  
this perception that since Linux is free, it can't be very good. It's  
still the realm of the arcane and those who are it's practitioners are  
strange and scary people.

Personally, I can't wait until the next time one of my parents  
computers die and needs a reinstall. I'm going to install Ubuntu first  
and foremost and make them at least *try* it.
