OK I am sure that many people far more qualified than me have written many words on the wonders of open source, regardless I am going to add some more.
I first came across ubuntu pretty much by chance when I purchased a web server that had it as the installed operating system. There was a choice of systems, I think my choice was based in no small part because I liked the sound of the name, trivial but true. This led me to want to learn more about what ubuntu was, procrastinator as I am, approximately 18 months later i am running my laptop on ubuntu and am a total - podcast listening - convert to ubuntu.
Open source software is the future, I am sure of it, for so many different reasons, not just because but in no small part because of the lack of cost.
I am now thinking with an open source mind for all of my future projects, the one I am most excited about is my open source movie. A feature film I intend to make - at last after many years of planning to - will be totally and in as pure a way as possible open source, all the components are to be open source, script, music, visuals, sound, all of it. I await with understated, patient but no less tremendous excitement to see how it will turn out.
