Stability, speed, options on browsers (not integral in OS). For most things there are really great apps freely downloadable. Now, that sounds like "cheap", but what open source really means is less complexity. If you don't have to worry about licensing processes, software is just simpler and generally more stable. Win/Win without Windows.
