respectfully, i disagree.  there are millions of people that could 
benefit from free software right now that would have no clue how to 
install putty for windows.

having people use free software on windows is an easy first step on 
the path to using free software entirely.   if someone can do all 
their work with mozilla composer and open office, it is an easy step 
to go from windows to gnu/linux.
