Makes mocrosoft software seem alot better. The only way people are going adopt linux is if it is better (not even close at the moment in security or ease of use) or if it is free. Once a company actually tries to charge for linux, people will start jumping back to microsoft in droves. So right now the fact is linux does not compare with microsoft on a dollar for dollar value.
What we are actually seeing with Redhat and suse is the beginning of the end for commercial linux. Redhat Tries to enforce license agreements far more draconian than microsoft just to stay alive. Novell buys suse and ruins one of the few brightspots in the linux community.
