You mentioned me, but I'll post anyway.

Linux is suitable for 90% of computer users (the internet, e-mail and MS Word type), but the only users who are aware enough to know about it are those tied to Windows by their work (Needing Adobe or Microsoft tools) or video games.

 

This is complete linux fanboy BS. I tried to install Ubuntu for a couple friends and they both HATED it. One of them couldn't get their digital camera to work. the other couldn't get his ipod to sync reliably. Needless to say it is not suitable for computer illiterate people who just want to do a few basic things in my experience. As anecdotal as that is, osx and windows are way better from a user friendliness/ease-of-use perspective. The paid software bit in your post is kinda silly as the only paid software a casual user needs is Word, which is available for all OSes in the form of OpenOffice.
