YOU don't have to deal with anti-virus, program patches, firewalls, etc. -- your service provider does.

Sincerely, I get all of this just by typing "apt-get update; apt-get upgrade" every few days. There seem to be some people somewhere who are making that work. I can't find the bill :-) .

Your point about outsourcing care for the software is taken, but I'm not sure that the differential value is very large.
