    "I can get Windows free too (illegal copy)"

    Oh please. What a waste to dump $500 into an OS
    And an annoying OS at that too.

    Free software? We don't run free software here. It's full of bad stuff.

    We don't download software in this house..

    I like to call people when I need help. (my brother)
    If at first you don't succeed - just buy the company and tell them to make the one you want.

    "I can't get my [completely unsupported] wireless card to work"

    followed up with

    "I don't want to spend money just to get Linux working wirelessly"

    And we know the real reason is because of how expensive the software is.
