Cheap software?

Wouldn't it give free software reputation of cheap software running on cheap hardware? Wouldn't we see customers in Walmart asking if the suspiciously cheap computer is running real Windows or a cheap imitation? A name like "KooBox" sounds very unprofessional. It would be a good name for a toy.

Should an inexpensive pc for the masses be running Windows or Linux? Linux gets my vote. Linux can run well on ANY computer.
