Re: OT: Windows is too expensive
If it is just mainly for websurfing and chatting, then I would say definitely go with Ubuntu. Non-technical users can get by just fine with it, never need to touch the command line or anything, and Firefox and gAIM work just as well as (some would even dare say better than) IE and MSN/Y!IM/AIM/etc. The Ubuntu people have done some really good work on bringing the distro together and making it user-friendly.
