For anyone considering running linux this type of nickle-and-diming is more likely to push them over the edge than to stay with windows.

If you stay with windows you get more of this kind of thing, if you jump ship then you never have to worry again.

Without having to pay for it. You can easily pay for most Linux distros.

I personally do pay for the FOSS tools I make use of, but I bet the majority that find outrageous to pay for OS X or Windows software aren't willing to pay for anything on UNIX FOSS clones.
