Neither can I, but here goes:

"Why linux?  Because being able to say, 'I took a vacation in Switzerland.'
is a lot more fun than saying, 'I've got a new computer with WindowsXP.'"

(Considering the cost of WinXP + New PC + Office + XP-specific apps).

"I'm a student.  Why do I use Linux?  Because I'm cheap.  I like free stuff.
That, and because, 'Hey baby, let's go to Taco Bell' only sounds good if 
you're Sylvester Stallone."

(Considering the cost of WinXP + New PC + Office + XP-specific apps).

And, finally:

"Taking photos on digital camera: Cool.
Mailing photos to grandparents: Even More Cool.
Hoping WindowsXP loads before they die: Sucks.
Seeing a sixteen-year-old punk in Sweeden buy a Ferrari on your credit card
because you didn't install a patch released five minutes ago: Ouch.

Some people think having WindowsXP is cool.  Others like the idea of having 
secure financial data.  Check out Linux, the free, stable, and more secure
operating system at: $FOO"
