I agree completely but I do wonder about one thing. Wouldn't the bragging rights of bringing down a bunch of macs inspire the script kiddies to go after them? It's like windows is so easy why bother? But maybe attacking Linux is too much like work?
As for upgrading to 7 I dunno. I'm getting a kick out of spending nothing on my home pc. It's been a long time coming. But if losing cable tv and switching to something like hulu starts to look promising then I would think 7 coupled with the right hardware would be worth considering.
