Maybe the meaning wasn't as clear as I thought...
--- Quote from: pofnlice ---you should have said windows is expensive, especially when your time is.

Windows is expensive - In money and time, it takes a lot of it
especially when your time, thus making it all the more so expensive.
Hence, the quote....
If you rely on GP for your product distribution, and you use windows, to maintain the profit margin, you need a higher GP to maintain the distribution system.
If Linux is your method, the GP can be lower to maintain a similar level of profit margin.
There's a basic business principle involved there, less for more where possible.

--- Quote from: Orethrius ---Well, it's not significantly faster per se, but don't forget that you're talking to the guy that uses Fluxbox because it loads in two seconds rather than two MINUTES. The more performance I can squeeze out of my hardware, the better.

My P3 system can boot XFCE in under one minute, and fluxbox is supposed to be ultralightweight, even more so than xfce.

I think fluxbox is better than XFCE, and faster (for me at least).
BTW, did you know that KDE uses up about 50 MB of RAM on startup ... fluxbox uses only about 3 MB.
