What's the point? (Score 1)

I thought the reason people switched to linux was to be on an OS that wasn't windows. If Xandros is targeting people who are running windows then chances are those people already paid for windows when they bought their pc. So why go and delete an expensive OS just to replace it with a slightly cheaper one that will ulitmately confuse the average newbie at some point. I can understand if someone downloaded a free distro to actually learn linux but not why they would pay money ontop of what they already paid for windows for a kinda-sorta linux. If you love windows so much just use it instead.
