I've been thinking about a "Cheat Sheet" for Advocates.   Kind of the
top 10 points to make, such as

A summarized truth ... if you will .. that will appeal to the Man in
the Street

(1) Google is a Linux company

(2) If you send email, browse the web, post on newsgroups, you use
Linux and OSS.

(3) Linux is offered, pre-installed, by Dell.   Lenovo, Acer, HP will
be ready by 2008.

(4) If you install Linux, you can load free (as in free beer) software
in all major groups: Office apps, browsers, games, media players --
for FREE.

(5) Linux is virus free.   Period.

(6) Linux uses your hardware more efficiently than OSX or Windows

(7) The best programmers work in Linux and OSS.

(8) You can select from many great distributions and customize your OS
to your exact specifications.

(9) Linux delivers stunning fast graphics with x.org

(10) Companies are hiring people with Linux skills...and it's free to
install and learn the technology!
