The problem is that there is a whole spectrum between
"the world ends" and "OMG wtf is this?"

You'll never know how many billions of dollars are lost worldwide because some windows explorer stops responding in Windows 7 (had that just recently again) *worldwide*.

In the case of Windows it's not religion.
It's despair.

Linux does not have some real marketing.
Linux is not preinstalled on all desktops and laptops in all
"normal" shops.
And that's where it all starts.
The average Joe does not know about it.

Backfiring argument:
the people know about Firefox because IE was a nightmare
(although it got better somehow in the last version).
And because people were looking(!) for alternatives.
Which means that your argument "the world has not ended"
was nearly false for these people.

Let's put up some Linux marketing.
Show the people how the window manager disappears on Windows 7 and how this is not the case with Linux.
Install it on all desktops and laptops instead of Windows.

Then wait -say- 5 years.
