As for costs, a windows machine would, on average, cost you $650. Most Linux OS cost zilch but you would of course have costs for the desktop or laptop itself that you'd want to install Linux on. A mac would cost $1000 or more. I don't quite get the "freedom" part of it though... Very pertinent points..

Please also mention the freedom one gets with each OS (free as in "free speech" not "free beer"). You could mention the large cost barrier to reaching Apple.
