There is nothing wrong with knocking Micro$oft/Apphole, and they sure
as hell deserve it, but the important thing is to describe or
demonstrate the superior aspects of GNU/Linux irrespective of any
"competing" OS.
 
I can easily list several superior points:
 
1) Total user control of the OS and software environment, if the user
chooses to eschew popular distros.

 
Buy a kit car, you get total user control over the finished product!

I gave that serious thought at one time but luckily my enthusiasm died
before I wound up with a garage full of pieces.

Better than a kit airplane though.
