Hey, the World is not as simple as the way you seems to describe it.
You can individualy refuse proprietary software, at home that is.
At work, it's quite different (yes, using free software at work is
possible). What if some customers only speak MS Word? Will you piss
them off, or will you grab OpenOffice?
