• Buy the Applications, not the Operating System
  Ever since the very early days of Computing I have been telling anyone who would listen to purchase the Applications they want, not the OS. This applied when there was DOS, Windows, AmigaDOS, MAC/OS, and so on. Why? Because it is the application that you will use to do the job. The OS simply runs your application. Granted the OS will determine how ROBUST the application is and how many feature may be available but the fact remains that you will be running EXCEL to do your spreadsheet work, not Windows.
