When I say it might be cheaper in some cases, that's just the truth, and
I am not going to say other things because some people are lying through
20 m² billboards and full page ads in the major print media...

Note that I would never say that Ubuntu/Linux is always cheaper, and
it's probably sometimes better (and much cheaper) to use Windows, e.g.
because of specialist software that's not available on Ubuntu and would
be expensive to replace, but there is no need to hide that in many cases
it *is* actually cheaper in the long term.
