Interesting, comments are also very good - have arguments against it as well.
"Windows does not support the hardware. The hardware supports Windows. While people complain that Linux does not have complete drivers for top 3d graphics cards, *neither does Windows*. Windows does not have full 3d drivers for these cards, Instead, these 3d graphics cards come with drivers for Windows."

Its getting quite the norm with software too... with *Linux just install - choose your apps or just do a full install.. (ok, one extra step to get mp3, dvd etc to play). - 20-30mins..(if you dont have too exotic) on windows - install OS, then install drivers for devices, (get CDs, get cracks) then install an office suite, install a browser/email client, install music players, install cd/dvd burning s/w.. & so on.. (remember almost reboot at every step!)... several hours!...
