Aah, the old car analogy! Slightly biased towards Linux as expected, but of course I agree. I like this one the best:
Prospective station wagon buyer: "I know what you say is true...but...er...I don't know how to maintain a tank!"
Bullhorn: "You don't know how to maintain a station wagon either!"
Happens all the time. In Windows/Linux discussions people alway mention that for running Linux, they'd have to ask for help all the time. And then they continue by asking me to install their new printer drivers on their Windows machine... T.

And these kind of nice commercials are the reason I have to wait in line in the store for people who want to buy a Mac but have no fucking clue what to do with a Mac or even with a computer in general! Get a calculator!
