You can transmute the points of that website into pro-Linux material that doesn't bash Microsoft:
Bashing: Vista requires hardware upgrades just to run its bloated DRM "Treacherous Computing" anti-features.
1) Linux can be run comfortably on most systems without a hardware upgrade.
Bashing: The new DRM additions allow Microsoft to restrict access to your own files and delete any software on your computer it deems "spyware."
2) It is very easy to create and control files on your Linux computer. Ubuntu Linux has an excellent package manager that makes installing software a breeze, and you will be notified by Linux before any software changes. You will have the opportunity and the option to refuse any software changes.
Bashing: When you purchase Windows Vista, you are leasing the software, not buying it. According to the lease agreement, you can only install Vista on one computer and will have to purchase a new Vista for a new computer. Sometimes "Windows Genuine Advantage" will declare a legitimate Vista installation to be an illegal installation and make your computer stop working.
3) Linux is free software. You may install one copy of Linux on several computers. No one will care if you do this.
